Reading and Project Drafts

Dear all,

I hope you enjoyed Roberto Rigobon's first class today.

You can find an article on free trade (back from when Paul Krugman was writing papers) under Class 21 materials.

In addition, please email me and Ron your project drafts this afternoon (thanks to those who have done that already).

See you on Thursday in E51-395, best,
Alessandro

Airbus/Boeing Innovator's Dilemma

Dear all,

Ron has written an incredibly clear and sharp application of the Innovator's Dilemma to the airline industry (thank you Ron!). You can find the document "Airbus/Boeing Innovator's Dilemma" under Class 18 materials.

I told you last class you cannot leave Sloan without knowing about this concept. Needless to say, both Ron and I are happy to talk about this more.

I look forward to seeing you in class tomorrow
Alessandro

PS) don't forget the crazy incumbent worksheet (under Class 19 materials)!
