Document Summary

Digital darwinism: implies that organizations which cannot accept to the new demands placed on them for surviving in the information age are doomed to extinction. Disruptive technology: a way of doing things that initially does not meet the needs of existing customers. Sustaining technology: produces an improved product customers are eager to buy. Innovators dilemma: discusses how established companies can take advantage of disruptive technologies without hindering existing relationships with customers, partners, and stakeholders. The internet and world wide web- the ultimate business disruptors. One of the biggest forces changing business is the internet: a massive network that connects computers all over the world and allows them to communicate with one another. Organizations must be able to transform as markets, economic environments, and technologies change. Focusing on the unexpected allows an organization to capitalize on the opportunity for new business growth from a disruptive technology. The internet began as an emergency military department of defense.
