What exactly is disruptive innovation? What’s the playbook? Plus example Airbnb

Disruptive innovation is probably one of the few ways that a startup can beat well-established (and well-capitalised) incumbents. The concept of DI has been stated as one of the most significant business management concepts. Clayton Christensen (CC) was ranked 1st Thinkers50 in 2011 and 2013, 2nd in 2015 and 3rd in 2017 (note this list is published only every second year).

But disruptive innovation (DI) is not what many people think. It gets often confused with breakthrough innovation (and other forms of innovation). But its playbook is fundamentally different from that of breakthrough innovation.

We are looking at this essential concept and its fascinating details. We use Airbnb as a real-world example to apply the theory on.

Learn about one of the most important innovation concepts now …

sharing-platform-business-model-value-chain-sml

Airbnb and Uber are the two most prominent examples of how to apply the platform business model to the sharing economy. But there are countless other sharing economy platform businesses as you have seen last time in the explanation of types and examples.

The single biggest risks to Airbnb, Uber and your sharing platform idea

sharing-economy-iTx-articles-overview

The biggest risks to Uber, Airbnb and sharing economy platform business models doesn’t come from technical or commercial dimensions but from their social impacts, yet these are being largely ignored.

The large for-profit sharing economy platforms, such as Uber and Airbnb, come with social risks and opportunities and I will give a balanced overview over both. The critics see them as leading to a “dystopia, with increasingly powerful platforms facing disempowered workers” [“that deliver a latte in a rainstorm to the more fortunate ones”]. Optimistic observers spot utopian possibilities of a crowd- and trust-based economic system and the emergence of a “networked society of micro‐entrepreneurs”

With a number of recent blows to both Uber and Airbnb in the US social and regulatory risks become crucial … understand what’s going on and how it may affect your ideas!
