Industrial Life Cycle Curve

Better and Better                                                                                            Day 69

      In the last two days, we have learned the innovation diffusion curve and the technology maturity curve. Now we can combine the curves. In the early stage of new technology development, the industry will experience twists and turns. But after this stage, the technology matures and related products will gradually be widely accepted by the market, until the market is saturated, and then to decline. Graphically, it’s the combination of “N” shaped curve and inverted “U” shape curve, which becomes a “M” shape curve, named industrial life cycle curve. This curve includes technology development stage and innovation diffusion curve.       

      過去兩天里，我們學習了“創新擴散曲綫”和“技術成熟度曲綫”。現在，我們將兩個曲綫合在一起。在新技術發展初期，行業會經歷曲折，但經過了這個階段，等到技術成熟，相關產品會慢慢廣汎被市場接受，直到市場飽和，再走向衰落。在圖形上就體現爲“N”型曲綫和倒“U”型曲綫的結合，變成一條“M”型曲綫，叫做“產業生命周期曲綫”。在這個曲綫里包含了技術發展階段和創新擴散階段。
