Chapter 3: Disruptive Innovation Disclosure Practices and Application of Stakeholder Theory

This study aims to verify the influence of stakeholders on Disruptive Innovation Disclosure (DID) by using company size as a control variable. DID is measured using the DID index. The authors use panel data regression with the period 2011–2020. Observations were made on 198 companies throughout the year in companies around the world. This study proves that shareholders, customers, suppliers, and company size are dimensions that affect DID. This situation shows that these dimensions have the power to control DID. The average company in the world has provided information about disruptive innovation. The scope of this research is limited to countries that have a visualization network of disruptive innovation collaboration in as many as 15 countries. The value of this study is to portray DID in countries that have disruptive innovation collaborative visualization networks.
