We consider innovations that aspect the two sides in an opposite way. We compare private incentives with social incentives and find that the bias in technology adoption depends crucially on whether the non-negative pricing constraint binds or not. Our results provide a rationale for a tougher competition policy to curb concentration if competition authorities put more weight on consumer surplus in welfare calculations. date: 2022-02 date_type: published publisher: TSE Working Paper official_url: http://tse-fr.eu/pub/124669 faculty: tse divisions: tse keywords: Technology Adoption, Two-Sided Platforms, Non-Negative Pricing Constraint, Pass-through language: en has_fulltext: TRUE subjectsJEL: JEL_D4 subjectsJEL: JEL_L1 subjectsJEL: JEL_L5 view_date_year: 2022 full_text_status: public monograph_type: working_paper series: TSE Working Paper volume: 20-1143 place_of_pub: Toulouse pages: 46 institution: Université Toulouse 1 Capitole department: Toulouse School of Economics book_title: TSE Working Paper oai_identifier: oai:tse-fr.eu:124669 harvester_local_overwrite: department harvester_local_overwrite: publish_to_hal harvester_local_overwrite: faculty harvester_local_overwrite: pending harvester_local_overwrite: abstract harvester_local_overwrite: pages harvester_local_overwrite: institution harvester_local_overwrite: place_of_pub harvester_local_overwrite: creators_name harvester_local_overwrite: title harvester_local_overwrite: creators_idrefppn harvester_local_overwrite: creators_halaffid harvester_local_overwrite: note harvester_local_overwrite: date oai_lastmod: 2022-03-11T16:24:36Z oai_set: tse site: ut1 publish_to_hal: FALSE citation: Choi, Jay Pil and Jeon, Doh-Shin (2022) Two-sided platforms and biases in technology adoption.
