Academic Panel: Destructive innovation

Innovation can both be associated with the constructive establishment of something new and with the destruction of the old. How can we understand such destructive forces a priori? To what extent are destructive elements of innovation the result of unintended consequences? What are the potential destructive forces of new open innovation strategies?
