That same paper, "The B2Bs Are Coming" by Eric B. Upin of BancBoston, Robertson Stephens is online at NetMarketMakers, and loaded much faster for me than did the URL you provided.
I've included a link to that and to eleven other substantial articles in a reading list on B2B electronic exchanges at Port4.com, a free site focused on information and discussion about new e-business solutions.
The reference there is as follows:
Upin, "The B2Bs are Coming, The B2Bs are Coming," (Robertson Stephens, circa 1999, 64 pages)
netmarketmakers.com
-- summary overview consisting primarily of slides and graphics designed to stimulate enthusiasm for investment in equities participating in this market.
You'll also find there this link to a seriously detailed piece from Bear Stearns:
Ehrens & Zapf, "The Internet Business-to-Business Report: Introducing the Metamediary" (Bear Stearns, September 1999, 196 pages)
bearstearns.com
-- in addition to an overall review of the business models used in B2B commerce, this comprehensive text includes an extensive list of existing exchanges, with information about their business and management.
Although Port4.com is oriented towards information and discussion of interest to business operators and solution providers, the material found there may be of interest to investors in the sector. It also has a searcheable, threaded discussion forum open to the public. Registration of a valid email address is required of would-be posters in the forum, to keep down the spam.
The reading list is at port4.com
