Digitisation offers potential for industry disruption

Digital opportunities for disruption

Disruption opportunities -how digital is your industry?

Opportunities for disruption

Harvard Business Review have an excellent series of videos. One that caught my eye (see below) recently was entitled: "How digital is your industry?". It describes, using a clever matrix, which industries are harnessing the power of digital across a range of areas (labour, usage, assets); and which ones are not.

Given that digitisation often becomes the point of entry for disruptors, it may be worth using the analysis in the video to think about disruption possibilities!
