James McQuivey of Forrester Research is author of the soon to be published book 'Digital Disruption'.
He argues that the technology world is run by five companies that he calls digital platforms - Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft.
He explains why these companies are so dominant, "A platform world teaches us this truth: it's not the device that matters, it's not even the connected device that matters. It's the connected experience that matters."
