“Disruptive innovation” definition on Wikipedia:

A disruptive innovation is an innovation that helps create a new market and value network, and eventually disrupts an existing market and value network (over a few years or decades), displacing an earlier technology. The term is used in business and technology literature to describe innovations that improve a product or service in ways that the market does not expect, typically first by designing for a different set of consumers in a new market and later by lowering prices in the existing market.In contrast to disruptive innovation, a sustaining innovation does not create new markets or value networks but rather only evolves existing ones with better value, allowing the firms within to compete against each other's sustaining improvements. Sustaining innovations may be either "discontinuous"[1] (i.e. "transformational" or "revolutionary") or "continuous" (i.e. "evolutionary").

Clayton. Christensen:“Đổi mới (innovation) được gọi là đột phá khi cho phép một tập khách hàng mới hoàn toàn sử dụng một sản phẩm hay dịch vụ mà trong quá khứ chỉ những người có rất nhiều tiền hoặc kỹ năng mới có thể sử dụng.”
