A Commentary Essay on Disruptive Innovation

Abstract

This is a short comment on an article written by Si et al. in 2020. Start-ups in emerging economies are reshaping the economy. One of the approaches is disruptive technologies and innovations. The disruptive innovation theory, proposed and developed by Christensen over 20 years ago, has been widely discussed and applied. However, there are still serious misunderstandings and misusing of the concept and connotation of disruptive innovation, leading to a lot of confusion in research and practice. Si et al., elaborates and clarifies these concepts and provides an interesting discussion of disruptive innovation and entrepreneurship in emerging economics that could create promising research opportunities in the future.
