Introduction
The disruptive technologies change the economic landscape as they foster entrepreneurial creativity and disrupt existing markets through an introduction of innovative business models. The disruptive technology usages breakthrough strategic approaches, and applies advanced communication technologies. The disruptive technology initially is focused on catering to the low-profit market, which is largely neglected by big companies, and slowly make its way through the high-profit market. In the process, technology emerges from an infancy stage to a dominant design. As standard dominant design emerges, more and more customers are willing to accept new technologies. A large number of disruptive technologies have changed the market and the perception of customers, for example, Uber (Dudley, Banister, & Schwanen, 2017), Netflix and YouTube (Van Esler, 2016), Amazon (DaSilva, Trkman, Desouza, & Lindič, 2013), Apple, Google, Facebook (Sharon, 2016) and others.
Disruptive technology is seen as a special type of technological change that operates through a specific mechanism and has specific consequences. The consequences can be seen as constructive and destructive.
Due to the fact that disruptive technologies have high risks and an insufficient amount of retrospective information about their use and promotion, it is necessary to carefully assess the potential of disruptive technologies.
