The dotcom hype
The year 1998 was characterised by the upswing in e-commerce. There was a real “dotcom hype” on the stock markets. At times, the stock market lacked a realistic view of the actual prospects of the “digital business”. No sooner had it begun than the steep upswing in e-commerce on the international markets was over again in 2001. Drastic falls in the share prices of companies specialising in e-commerce led to a rapid decline and a wave of redundancies and bankruptcies among the previously highly acclaimed “dotcoms”. The list of failures was long – economists rightly asked themselves: “Much ado about nothing”?

Despite teething troubles: Internet-based business processes become a model for success
Today we know that the premature swan song for the new forms of internet-based business processes was completely unfounded, despite the apparently considerable start-up problems. First and foremost, the bursting of the dotcom bubble claimed the lives of companies that had no plausible business models, insufficient liquidity or were simply poorly managed. The failure of many e-commerce companies was also not least the result of a classic early start and therefore the opposite of the often invoked “first mover advantage”.
