The document discusses the differences between innovation and disruption. Innovation typically involves incremental changes that optimize existing processes and systems, while disruption involves fundamentally changing technologies, business models, or social structures. Disruption often stems from creativity and lateral thinking applied to unsolved problems, enabling entirely new opportunities. While innovation improves existing ecosystems, disruption may require creating new ecosystems to succeed. Disruption has far-reaching, paradigm-shifting impacts and opens up opportunities that never previously existed.
