ReplyDeleteGreat topic! This really changes the way that IT is and will be consumed in the future and will drive innovation and competitiveness. I recently saw an article of a trading app called RobinHood which drives innovation and competitiveness in the trading space as users will subscribe for free and not face traditional trading models based on brokerage fees per transaction. The article explains how the RobinHood model will generate revenue (which I don't quite understand). But to your point, new simplified IT models and business models will emerge with this wave of innovation towards the 3rd platform.
