    Posted 09-23-2013 10:04

    Dear colleagues,

     

    For a new course using the strategy/industry evolution lens, I'm looking for cases about disruptive entrepreneurs/organizations that (try to) change substantially the rules of the game in an existing industry, possibly by operating in legal 'grey areas'. For example, organizations such as Napster (from the perspective of the music industry) or WikiLeaks (from the perspective of the news media industry) would be great candidates for this course.

     

    If you can think of existing cases with the same flavor, please drop me a line at jvergne@ivey.ca

     

    Many thanks in advance! (and apologies for cross-posting)

     

    Best,

     

    JP.
