Adoption Curve

The Adoption Curve is a model that describes how new ideas, products, or technologies are adopted by different groups of people over time. It typically features several stages: Innovators (the first to try), Early Adopters (who quickly follow), Early Majority (who adopt once the idea proves itself), Late Majority (who are more skeptical), and Laggards (who are the last to adopt). This curve illustrates that adoption is gradual and varies by group, helping businesses and innovators understand how to effectively introduce and promote new concepts to the public.
