在我们的大部分时间里,我们开始理解破坏性不是一件好事。在我们的学年中,破坏性可能会使我们陷入各种麻烦。但是在商业世界中,破坏性可能意味着领导您的行业或成为其众多追随者之一。

大多数对“破坏性”公司的提及通常专注于硅谷创新者开发最新,最出色的计算技术。但是最近出版了50家最具破坏性公司的清单MIT Technology Review, focused on what companies did over the past year to “strengthen their hold on a market, challenge the leaders of a market, or create a new market.”

此列表包含许多公司应该非常熟悉的公司。以下是著名的制造商和自动化供应商的列表,这些供应商列出了列表,以及为什么选择它们的原因。

ABBwas added to the list for its development of a高压直流线的断路器—an important development in spreading the use of renewable energy.
奥迪列出了它的清单laser-scanning road detector that fits in a car’s front grille。这一发展使自动驾驶汽车更接近现实。
康宁制作一种新型薄,灵活,牢固的玻璃触摸屏设备帮助在“最具破坏性”列表中获得了名称。
陶氏化学’s commercialization of装有光伏材料的屋顶木瓦drew the attention of MIT.
GE’s new gas turbine for utilities using wind and solar that can ramp up quickly when greener power is not available helped add its name to the list.
Novartisdeveloped of a continuous drug manufacturing process that it claims can combine compounds quickly and in unique ways.
Phillips列出了可以由智能手机和平板电脑控制的新LED灯泡。
西门子列出了电池开发的清单风技术that are expected to play a major role in Germany’s plan to rely more heavily on renewable power.
Toyota’s continuing progression on the Prius, in this case its plug-in version, helped it make the list.

在制造业和自动化行业清单上的名称中,其中的名称不太著名。

Alta Devices因其公认flexible solar sheetswhich the military will use to provide portable power to drones and soldiers.
Nest列出了它的清单thermostat which can learn users’ preferences从而最大程度地提高其效率。
Rethink Roboticshit the list because its机器人可以与人一起安全地工作
