Market Evolution over the Life Cycle
• Drivers of diffusion– When does the S curve imply a diffusion curve?
• Managing the market– Market segmentation– Crossing the chasm– New markets, new needs: The Innovator’s Dilemma
What drove the diffusion of the CD?
The diffusion of many products andservices follow a similar pattern:
PenetrationOrCumulative Sales

TimeMaking the transition from “early adopters” to “early majority” users often
requires the development of quite different competencies: e.g. service,
support capabilities, much more extensive training.
Crossing the chasm?
Characterizing the segments
• Innovators
• Early adopters
• Early majority
• Late majority
• Laggards

Does the “chasm” always occur at“takeoff”?

Thinking aboutdiscontinuities from a
market driven perspective
From Moore’s perspective, why shoulddiscontinuities be hard?

Who buys a technologywhen it is firstintroduced?
Time
• New technologies sell to:─ New customers─ With new needs─ Often at lower margins
Initially, S&R aligners sold to customerswith different needs:
For example: Semiconductor Photolithography
Scanning Projection
Aligners
Step & Repeat
Aligners
Speed
Yield
But then they improved sufficiently totake the whole marketFor example: Semiconductor Photolithography
Scanning Projection
Aligners
Step & Repeat
Aligners
Speed
Yield
Some new technologies sell to niche marketswith less demanding requirements
Are all discontinuities disruptive inChristensen’s sense?
Managing the change in customergroups may be the hardest task!
