<span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 11.5pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">In recent years, two-sided marketplaces have emerged as viable business models in many real-world applications. In particular, we have moved from the social network paradigm
to a network with two distinct types of participants representing the supply and demand of a specific good. Examples of industries include but are not limited to accommodation (Airbnb, Booking.com), video content (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok), ridesharing (Uber,
Lyft), online shops (Etsy, Ebay, Facebook Marketplace), music (Spotify, Amazon), app stores (Apple App Store, Google App Store) or job sites (LinkedIn). The traditional research in most of these industries focused on satisfying the demand. OTAs would sell
hotel accommodation, TV networks would broadcast their own content, or taxi companies would own their own vehicle fleet. In modern examples like Airbnb, YouTube, Instagram, or Uber, the platforms operate by outsourcing the service they provide to their users,
whether they are hosts, content creators or drivers, and have to develop their models considering their needs and goals. </span></p>

<span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 11.5pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The two-sided marketplaces are almost entirely data-driven. Machine learning powered methods and algorithms are essential in every aspect of two-sided marketplaces. This workshop
aims to bring practitioners of two-sided marketplaces together and discuss the evolution of content ranking, recommendation systems, and data mining when solving for producers and consumers on these platforms. Additionally, the workshop will cover Generative
AI applications in these platforms and how they are changing the ecosystem.</span></p>
