- Synopsis
- In established companies, resources and energy coalesce most readily behind proposals to attack upmarket into higher-performance products that can earn higher margins. This rational pattern of upmarket movement can create a vacuum in low-end value networks that draws in entrants with technologies and cost structures better suited to competition. This chapter examines the steel industry as a salient example of this phenomenon. This chapter was originally published as chapter 4 of "The Innovator's Dilemma: When New Technologies Cause Great Firms to Fail."
