M31 - Invited lecture at an international conference, printed in full (invitation letter required)

In recent years, the platform economy has transformed how individuals share and conduct transactions in digital spaces. This phenomenon has attracted scholars from various diverse fields and disciplines into an emerging research area. This study aims to explore the trends and key insights in the literature on the platform economy through a bibliometric approach. The analysis includes research articles published between 2000 and 2024 on the platform economy. Using publications available on the Web of Science, this study identifies influential journals, institutions, landmark papers, and citation bursts. In addition to researchers in management, business, and economics, scholars from sociology, communication, law, and computer science are increasingly contributing to platform economy research. The findings reveal that the focus of platform research has evolved over time. This research will serve as a basis for future discussions on the crucial roles played by digital platforms in the platform economy.
