In 2015 PACE bought the remaining shares of former partner IBC, thus becoming the sole project developer. At that time the main tower reached the 4th floor, growing at the rate of approximately two to three storeys per month. As of September 2014, construction of the main tower reached the 45th floor, and in December 2014 the building had reached the 60th floor. In October 2013, the construction of the smaller CUBE building was finished. The groundbreaking ceremony was held on 20 June 2011, the building was topped off in 2015, and was completed in 2016. The total project value as a result of pricing changes during the course of construction reached 21 billion baht (US$620 million).
People began hording cases of old Coke and selling them on the black market. Author Malcolm Gladwell in his book “Blink” adds that the taste test was the problem – people might prefer a sip of a sweeter drink but not necessarily want to drink a whole can of it. As of May 2020, Coca-Cola is worth more than $230 billion. In retrospect, the failed launch of New Coke had the unintended consequence of strengthening the appeal of its original brand. Its bottom line certainly hasn’t suffered.
The secret to Blockbuster’s early success was using computers to make sure that every store was stocked with the most popular movies. In the late 1990s, an Internet upstart named Netflix began offering a DVD-by-mail service. Antioco laughed Netflix out of the office, seeing it as a niche player. But once Blockbuster nailed its winning formula – charging half a billion dollars in late fees per year – it failed to adapt to the changing tastes of American consumers. The subscription service exploded in popularity, and Netflix executives flew down to Texas in 2000 to make an offer to Blockbuster CEO John Antioco. Who’s laughing now? As of April 2020, Netflix is valued at $194 billion, according to Forbes.

In the age of dial-up Internet connections – Beeep! After months of private talks, the corporate marriage was announced on Jan. 10, 2000, to ecstatic media coverage. AOL Inc. CEO Steve Case met Time Warner CEO Gerald Levin in 1999 and the two men immediately began daydreaming about a merger between the biggest names in old and new media. AOL was a Wall Street darling, flush with investor cash and looking for a prestige purchase.
