Applico, LLC is a platform innovation company that is headquartered in New York, NY, with offices in San Francisco. It helps traditional enterprises embrace a platform business model to compete against modern monopolies like Amazon, Google and other big tech companies. [1] Calling itself the anti-consulting consulting company, Applico's team of platform innovators is composed of entrepreneurs, operators and bankers. Alex Moazed, CEO, and Nick Johnson, Head of Platforms, co-authored the best-selling book Modern Monopolies[2], which defines the platform business model and why they dominate the 21st century economy.

History

Applico was founded by current CEO Alex Moazed in 2009 while attending Babson College.[3] An article on The Wall Street Journal describes Applico’s strategy of focusing on mobile technology: "If there's an art, it's not so much in making a pretty app as it is spotting the next wave before the competition does."[4]
