We present an extension to an existing work that investigates conditions for ``disruptive technologies{''} to cause the failure of a former monopolist (incumbent) to the advent of new firm (entrant). This paper shows that 1. the forecast of the positions of the entrant technology allows the incumbent to detect threatening entrant technologies, and 2. cloning the entrant firm allows the incumbent to participate in the new market and assures the survival of the incumbent firm group.
