Disruptive technologies are new ways of doing things that displace or disrupt the established technology. They alter significantly the way businesses or entire industries operate. Often times, these technologies force companies to alter the way they approach their business, or risk losing market share or becoming irrelevant.
Disruptive technology lacks refinement, often has performance problems because it is new, appeals to a limited audience and may not yet have a proven practical application.
- As an unused, unapplied and untested alternative, it takes time for disruptive technology to be dominantly deployed, ultimately degenerating existing technology.
Although Harvard Business School professor Clayton M. Christensen coined the the term in 1997, disruptive technology has been a prevalent theme throughout history.
