Abstract:

In recent years the concept of disruptive innovation has become central to business and innovation. A disruptive innovation can be defined as a product, service, technology, or business model that enters the market as either a low-end entrant, while simultaneously bringing some new attribute to the market; or as a new market disruptor that creates a distinct foothold in a previously undiscovered market. Much of the previous research into disruptive innovation has been through case study frameworks, and by selection of specific firms that fit the model. The question is, does the model have meri

Abstract:

Disruptive innovation as a theory lacks concrete definition and is often misinterpreted in the literature. Previous studies dealing with the phenomenon largely focus on the process of market disruption and the factors that drive the process. However, little research exists that seeks to quantitatively validate existing theory. In response to these problems, we develop a market growth model that is capable of analysing multiple market segments and innovations. Building on existing models of consumer choice and innovation diffusion, we develop a utility-based model that considers the effects of

The first time I've heard about Uber I was in London, during my Internship. I had to reach a place in East London, but I was living in the opposite part of the city. At night time the tube is not working and by bus it would have taken me about 2 hours to reach my destination. So my colleague suggested me to use Uber, I was totally unaware about this app. I downloaded it on my smarthone, I gave my credit card details and in few minutes through the mobile GPS system, I was able to contact the closest available driver to pick me up from my place and to take me to East London, I reached my destina

För att klara av detta behövs en ny affärsmodell utvecklas som kan skräddarsy utbildningar till studenter efter deras unika behov. Orsaken till varför inte den traditionella högskolan kan erbjuda skräddarsydda utbildningar är för att affärsmodellen är standard

Abstract:

<p> Disruptive Innovation theory explains how industry entrants can defeat established firms and quickly gain a significant share of their key markets, in spite of the fact that incumbents tend to be significantly more experienced and better resourced. The theory has been criticized for being underspecified: whilst the general mechanics of the phenomenon of disruptive innovation are clear, it has not been established which individual variables are essential to the process and which ones are merely ancillary. As a consequence, to date it has not been possible to build a predictive model on the

Abstract:

This paper discusses the conditional factors indicating market susceptibility toward disruptive innovation. There is a need to separate the different forms of disruptive innovation into segments targeting; technology, product or business model disruption. The concepts are fundamentally different and the literature to date is very one sided toward disruptive technology/product innovation. A shortage of studies on disruptive business model innovation has been discovered. This study therefore presents a framework for evaluating the market susceptibility toward disruptive business model innovation

The literature shows that resistance and adoption factors differ and by solely focussing on the one and ignoring the other, diffusion of an innovation will be limited. Resistance factors have largely been ignored while companies continue to focus on increasing innovation attributes which can be detrimental to the success of an innovation. The research sets out to explore and identify the factors that influence resistance towards a disruptive innovation and how these factors can be mitigated to increase adoption.

Abstract:

Introduction: Research shows that the lifespan of large companies gets shorter and shorter, the average age of companies on the list of fortune 500 is 33 years, the average age is expected to decline to 12 years by 2027 (Anthony et al., 2018). Innovations that are driven by social, environmental or sustainability issues are defined as sustainability-driven innovations (Metz, 2016). Not much is known when it comes to what sources can trigger a disruptive sustainability-driven innovation. Problem background: There has been many troubling studies about the damage we as humans bring upon our bl

Abstract:

Companies, nations, governments and multilateral organisations are each in their context recognising that 20th-century approaches to innovation and competitiveness are no longer relevant or effective – with whole industries and economies challenged by the fastmoving and disruptive forces of 21st-century technologies that enable unprecedented innovative capability. The rate and scale of change and disruption calls for innovation thinking more suited to a world highly connected and networked and rapidly redefined by global digital architecture and alternative forms of value exchange, value creat

Abstract:

The technological changes and digitalization are on the rise within the real estate market as new innovations are being developed and is within the real estate market known as proptech. However, the real estate sector is known to be slow in adapting to new innovative changes and therefore, been slow in developing the real estate market which has led to lagging behind in creating new solutions. The purpose of this research is to examine the current proptech sector in regards of existing business models and business model innovations. The proptech sector is in parts divided into real estate fint

Abstract:

This thesis investigates what it means to view disruptive innovation as a political problem. I take my point of departure in the tendency for controversial disruptions in heavily regulated sectors, such as electronic cigarettes or hydraulic fracturing, to open regulatory spaces by challenging established expectations about how they ought to be governed. In the wake of such disruption, policy actors with a stake in the matter engage in sensemaking and discursive contests to control the meaning of the innovations in order to close the regulatory spaces by aligning them with one set of laws inste

Abstract:

Disruptive Innovation, according to the term’s founder Clayton Christensen, is defined as a specific type of innovation that is able to capture the lower-end of the market through quality, feature, or cost differences and leverage this position to achieve higher market share. Entrepreneurs who utilize disruptive innovation strategies have been historically able to create products and services that achieve massive financial and cultural success. Theories of personality characteristics have been previously applied to entrepreneurial activities, but not used to bridge the gap between developmenta

ABSTRACT Under conditions of pervasive change, the most difficult challenge facing the market leader is sustaining its leading position. The primary research problem statement relates to the construct of Disruptive Innovation that has the potential for new entrants to substantially alter the basis of competition and impact the business models of incumbents. Ultimately, how are shapers distinguished from adopters of Disruptive Innovation? A qualitative research methodology was selected given the nature of the research. The main findings from the analysis indicate that nontechnological a

Abstract:

Advances in medical technology have altered the need for certain types of surgery to be performed in traditional inpatient hospital settings. Less invasive surgical procedures allow a growing number of medical treatments to take place on an outpatient basis. Hospitals face growing competition from ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). The competitive threats posed by ASCs are important, given that inpatient surgery has been the cornerstone of hospital services for over a century. Additional research is needed to understand how surgical volume shifts between and within acute care general hospitals

Abstract:

Firms exist in a world where change is no longer incremental but rather discontinuous, abrupt and seditious. A firm's survival is dependent on its ability to adapt to these changing factors to achieve better alignment between the firm and its environment. Business model innovation, defined as an innovative way to create and capture value, can allow firms to recreate themselves in a way that leads to sustained competitive advantage. Change creates uncertainty, which may impact performance and as change becomes more rapid and more sophisticated, embracing business model innovation as a core com
