Abstract
Dynamics of the platform economy in manufacturing industries have not unfolded in the same way as in the consumer industries, where platforms have build powerful monopolies through controlling the contact to customers.

This requires the combination of smart product with smart services and customer experiences. The paper argues that European companies have an opportunity in the B2B platform arena.
