The theory of disruptive innovation was invented by Clayton Christensen, of Harvard Business School, in his book “The Innovator’s Dilemma”.

– Clayton M. Christensen (1995)

Christensen used the term to describe innovations that create new markets by creating new categories of customers.

Understanding and absorbing the innovative practices is best done through dialogue. To the extent, this conference will emphasize interactive sessions, where the audiences are expected to play an active role where presenters seek to build on each other's contributions. The conference committee fosters open dialogue and forum among and across all the areas of Disruptive Innovations.
