8. GARTNER HYPE CYCLE
METHODOLOGY
• The Hype Cycle should help to make clear whether the new technology is really
becoming mainstream or whether it remains a hype and the technology goes out
like a night candle again.
• What do you really need to invest in, where are the opportunities and what
technology will it make in the coming years?
• Peak of Inflated Expectations:
• The technology is reaching its "hype peak". First success stories appear, but failures are
just as widely measured. Some companies start working with the technology, others do
not.
