Brief IS intro: Think about macro-trends; connectivity of devices, computing power, data. Some hyped-up ideas may
crash soon… what new technology is most interesting? Every business is an information business (said 20 yrs ago).




Session 1: Digital Disruption
Learning Goal: Define digital disruptions and analyze examples of digital disruptions.

1.1 Digital Technologies
How to evaluate the impacts of digital technologies on
industry dynamics?

SMACIT: Disruptive Technologies Social - Mobile - Analytics – Cloud - IoT
Social media Mobile Analytics (AI) Internet of Things (IoT)
Cognitive Computing Blockchain Biometrics
The disruptions keep evolving…
Gartner’s hype cycle: 5 phases
1. Innovation Trigger: A potential technology breakthrough kicks things
off. Early proof-of-concept stories and media interest trigger
significant publicity. Often no usable products exist and commercial
viability is unproven.
2. Peak of Inflated Expectations: Early publicity produces a number of
success stories — often accompanied by scores of failures. Some
companies take action; many do not.
3. Trough of Disillusionment: Interest wanes as experiments and
implementations fail to deliver. Producers of the technology shake out or fail. Investments continue only if the
surviving providers improve their products to the satisfaction of early adopters.
4. Slope of Enlightenment: More instances of how the technology can benefit the enterprise start to crystallize, and
become more widely understood. Second- and third-generation products appear from technology providers.
More enterprises fund pilots; conservative companies remain cautious.
5. Plateau of Productivity: Mainstream adoption starts to take off. Criteria for assessing provider viability are more
clearly defined. The technology's broad market applicability and relevance are clearly paying off.

Three trends in Emerging technologies’s Hype cycle:
1. AI everywhere (e.g. deep learning, machine learning, UAVs, autonomous vehicles)
2. Transparently immersive experiences (4D print, AR, connected homes, VR)
3. Digital platforms (5G, blockchain, IoT platform, quantum computing)

Digitized: Digitization Digital: Digital technologies are introducing speed and connectivity that they create
involves standardizing opportunities for entirely new customer value propositions
business processes. - Companies deliver digitally inspired customer value proposition in the form of digital offerings
Associated with cost cutting, - Digital offerings are information-enriched customer solutions delivered as seamless,
reliability, efficiency, and personalized customer experiences. Digital offerings introduce new business models and
transparency. provide new sources of revenue.
“The paradigm is not displacement and replacement but connectivity and recombination.”

, Some examples of digital disruptions:
o Entertainment (Blockbuster vs Netflix) o Photography (Kodak going bankrupt due to a lack of digitisation)
o o Telcom (nokia & blackberry) o Music (CDs vs on-demand. No more cassette) o Book (amazon…)

The process of digital disruption has to do:
1. Business world is increasingly digitizing
2. Breaking down industry barriers
3. Creating new opportunities while destroying long-successful business models

 This process is called digital disruption

1.2 Understanding Industry Structure
Learning goal: Analyze how emerging technologies affect a given industry’s structure and dynamic.

Evaluate Digital Disruption: How does digital technologies change industry dynamics? Ask the following questions:
 How can IT be used to reengineer core values activities and change the basis of the competition?
 How can IT build or reduce barriers to entry?
 How can IT add value to existing products and services or create new ones?
 How can IT change the nature of relationships and the balance of power among buyers and suppliers?
 How can IT increase or decrease switching costs?

1.2.1 Value Chain
A value chain is a set
of activities that
explains how a firm is
essentially configured
and linked, and the
way they are
organized. The way
they are configured
determines the
competitive advantage of
a given firm.

It can be used to analyse
internal operations and
evaluate key success and
key processes.

Support Activities Primary Activities
 Firm infrastructure  Inbound logistics
 Human resources  - Operations
 technology development  - Outbound logistics
 - Procurement  - Marketing & Sales
 - After-sales services

1.3 Newly Vulnerable Market
Learning Goal: Explain why some markets are more
Why some industries are more vulnerable than others
vulnerable than others to be disrupted, and apply the in digital disruption?
conditions of the newly vulnerable market to an industry.
