What is the technology adoption curve?

The technology adoption curve (TAC) is a theory about how individuals and organizations behave in implementing innovative technologies.

The technology adoption curve is a traditional bell curve with exponential growth in the beginning and a slowdown in adoptions occurring during the late majority period. When new technology is introduced, it is usually hard to get, expensive and imperfect. Over time, the technology's availability, costs and features improve to the point where a large population of users can benefit from adopting the technology.

I hope that helps.
