Post a RequestTechnology Adoption Lifecycle Definition
technology adoption lifecycle – n : a.k.a. technology adoption
curve; the staged pattern by which virtually all new technologies or
technology-related products are adopted by the market. Geoffrey A. Moore, in
his seminal work on marketing for technology startups, Crossing the Chasm,
defined the sequence of customer types to adopt (or buy) a given product as
innovators, early adopters, early majority, late majority, and laggards. Bear
in mind that the technology adoption lifecycle follows the life of a
technology, rather than a specific product or a company.
