Sorry, I thought most people here liked smaller companies.
A few advantages, off the top of my head:
* more market diversity (e.g. more niche offerings)
* less consolidation of power (e.g. Apple / Oracle / Google / Microsoft, etc)
* more social incentive to reduce corporate-to-corporate transaction costs
* improved specialization
* increased competition
* development of new market sectors
Currently, small companies don't work as well as big ones because of the transaction cost overhead. It seems to me that if a society could reduce transaction costs between corporations, better services and more specialization could emerge.
In my experience, small groups are more agile and able to do an incredible amount of work. Why do you need 1,000 - 100,000 people in one company?
