This Continuity Program uses the Student First methodology. It is imperative and obligatory to read the case and work the documentation in advance.

ESADE Alumni invites you to another interesting talk in the Refresher Programme series entitled “New Economic Models. The ByHours, a case study” by Josep Sayeras (Lic&MBA 93/Doct 06), professor in ESADE’s department of economics, finance and accounting, and Juan Pedro Aznar, associate professor in ESADE’s department of economics, finance and accounting.

The multi-sided platforms or matchmakers that have stormed into the real economy in the 21st century have rendered the use of traditional market structures as tools for evaluating today’s world obsolete. This calls for a thorough revision of this paradigm and the design of new models that provide management guidance.

This talk will illustrate some of these models by means of a case study of the company ByHours. When combined with naming key factors in their conclusions, case studies are extremely useful in management training because they entail cognitive processes used in everyday business decisions.
