Disruptive technologies: when do firm capabilities become liabilities, and vice versa?
The case would focus on the mobile phone/smartphone industry, specifically on Nokia and its demise as an established value in this industry.

Don’t only focus on how Nokia’s strengths became a weakness, but also on how “weaknesses” of other companies became a strength.
