1 - 'Could Ali Baba be bigger than Amazon?'
Above is Jack Ma, the founder of Ali Baba.
Ali Baba is currently making more revenue than eBay and Amazon combined, there are 279 million active buyers and 8.5 million active sellers on its on-line platform, has a number of competitive advantages over Amazon. It has become one of the largest technology companies.
