In this event we have a look at the design and development of an unconventional market, where neither cash nor conventional "goods" are changed. Kidney swap is an idea initiated by a small group of physicians that are advanced and market designer Alvin Roth and HBS professor.
Kidney Matchmakers Case Study Solution
This case follows this group as they struggle with some of the complex questions connected with launching a national clearinghouse for kidney exchange. It raised crucial questions about why and how value is created in markets, and how significant moral dilemmas (in this case, the buying and selling of human organs) complicate the link between market exchange and value creation.
