- Resource dependence upon mainstream customers
- Rigidity of existing routines and competences
- Demand uncertainty
- Institutional tension
- Economic reliance on established value networks
What is, according to Cozzolino et al., the definition of disruptive innovations?

- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice

For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
Why is BMA complex and challenging, provide an example?
Why was the internet a 'disruptive technology'?
Prior: Increase print quality (color, speed automation)
Now: Redefined meaning of performance by; by-directionality, real time wide access, audio visual forms of sharing information freely.
Initially appealing to customer niche, over time took over the whole industry.
Explain the process model of BMA, provide by Cozzolino etal
Phase 1: Stand Alone Experimentation
Phase 2: Governance mechanism of cooperation and acquisitions
What is the main driver of phase 1 of the BMA process?
Incumbents are more likely to experiment in isolations.
Tensions rise from when combining internal and external knowledge and the closed vs open logics.
Failure and learning lead to change in mechanisms and phase 2 of the BMA process
What is the main driver of Phase 2 of the BMA process?
What is 'external economies of scale' and how does it differ from internal?
Internal economies of scale comes from a firms specific production process (ford assembly line)
What are the reasons for the recursive and non-linear nature of BMA?
- Initial failure to adapt
- There is still value in the old model
- New changes in market conditions (e.g. Setbacks in the external new market)
What are two conditions that might help to succesfully introduce disruptive models through stand-alone experimentation, according to findings in the Cozzolino Paper?
- Relatedness to core business (must be unrelated to those of traditional core business, to limit conflicts (eg open vs closed model conflicts)
- Degree of time advancement
What are the two reasons why experimentation is an important mechanism of adaptation in Phase 1?
- Opportunity perception, when actors perceive an opportunity they tend to react creatively and are more likely to take risks
- In the 'Fluid Stage' of technology innovation, product innovation tends to be high
Why would companies open their business model, according to Cozzolino et al?
- Reduce costs
- Create new businesses and innovations
- Increase size (grow their market)
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
