Last year as part of my Masters degree, I wrote a paper on why iPhone adoption will be faster in Australia than the US. Key to this claim was diffusion of innovation theory, to which I introduced a new concept titled The Newton Ball Diffusion Acceleration Effect.
In the year since developing this concept, I have been responsible for several new product launches, that have all been successful way beyond expectations due to another theory that I have developed on how to accelerate diffusion of innovation.

I am now ready to share this secret with you, it is called Accelerating Diffusion of Innovation: Maloney’s 16% Rule.

Surfing around for a new digital camera and I have to say Samsung’s latest viral teaser campaign for ‘Tap and Take’ technology is awesome. Really simply they are asking people to guess what ‘Tap and Take’ is, then using social media to spread the resulting curiosity.

Diffusion of Innovation was one of my favourite research topics while studying my Masters of Business in International Marketing. This free white paper introduces the ‘Newton Ball Diffusion Acceleration Effect’ and discusses its influence of the current global innovation phenomenon, the Apple iPhone.
