Abstract
Set in April 2020, the case chronicles the evolution of Netflix from renting DVDs by mail to the world's leading streaming video on demand (SVOD) provider. It explores Netflix’s distinctive strategy and culture, which promoted independent decision-making, agility, and innovation, and were central to the company's ability to seize a succession of growth opportunities. At the turn of the decade, entertainment firms and cable networks in the U.S. began to fight back, consolidating media properties, ending licensing contracts with Netflix, and launching competing SVOD services. As competition intensified, Netflix set its sight on India, which it viewed as the source of the next 100 million subscribers. But, to win in the crowded and price-sensitive Indian market, Netflix needed to revisit its past strategic choices, such as its premium pricing policy, avoiding live-entertainment, never including advertisements in its programming, and growing organically.
