In 1997, Harvard Business School's Professor Clayton M. Christensen published his book The Innovator's Dilemma where he introduced his theory of Disruptive Innovation. He co-founded the Tribeca Disruptive Innovation Awards in 2009 with Craig Hatkoff. The awards "focus on breakthroughs occurring at the intersection of technology and culture where frequent clashes and resistance to change impede social progress and solutions for some of the world's most vexing problems." The annual awards are given by the Disruptor Foundation, co-founded by Craig Hatkoff, Irwin Kula and Professor Clayton Christensen in 2009 as a private 501(C)3 non-profit organization whose mission is to raise awareness of and encourage the advancement of disruptive innovation theory and its application in societally-critical domains.

Starting 2017, The Disruptor Foundation and 1Future announced the first edition of the Disruptor Awards@ Hiroshima recognizing the achievements of a wide ranging group of innovators and social entrepreneurs across cultural, philanthropic, political, and technological domains. The ceremonies are held annually in Hiroshima, Japan.
