AB Each  disruption  is  composed  of  three  enabling  building  blocks:  a  technology,  a  business  model,  and  a  disruptive  value  network.  While  Chapter  1  deals  with  business  models,  this  chapter  focuses  on  the  technological  enablers  that  form  the  backbone  of  disruptive  business  models.  These  technological  or  methodological  enablers  allow  the  basic  problems  in  an  industry  to  be  addressed  on  smaller  scale,  with  lower  costs,  and  with  less  human  skill  than  historically  was  needed.  These  technologies  sometimes  come  from  years  of  work  in  corporate  research  and  development  (R&D)  labs.  Others  are  licensed  or  bought,  and,  on  occasion,  technology  can  be  repurposed  from  an  entirely  different  industry.
