   Industry Aggregation

   December 3, 2008

   Nice detailed list. You might also want to consider adding the emerging industry aggregation business model which is similar to the Japanese “keiretsu” model. The main difference between these two collaborative models is that the keiretsu consists of giant interlinked public companies whereas aggregation consists of small interlinked private companies working with a public shell.

   There’s safety in numbers as the old saying goes. Aggregation is a way to both weather the economic storm and then maximize your valuation when the seas finally calm.
