Читать книгу Immersive Technologies to Accelerate Innovation - Simon Richir - Страница 14

Every year since 1955, Fortune magazine has published a ranking of the 500 highest-grossing U.S. companies. In 2014, the American Enterprise Institute revealed that 88% of the companies initially included in this ranking were no longer in existence. Some had gone bankrupt, others were bought out, even though most of them had been flagships of American industry. As Joseph Schumpeter said, most companies die “of old age” when they are no longer able to innovate. Lack of innovation naturally leads established companies to disappear. These disappearances are accelerated by the arrival of new companies which, on the contrary, are born and develop in their wake. Innovation is therefore a question of survival, or at least of maintaining a dominant position.
