如题,原句情境如下:
In this way the researchers differed little from the entrepreneurial business themselves, as the saw and seized opportunities in a young market.(这样看来,这些研究者本身与创业企业非常相似,因为他们都在新生市场上观察与捕获机会。)In terms of technology diffusion, however, all these adopters and adaptors needed an innovator in order to initially break into the market. (然而,由于技术的普及,这些adopters and adaptors都需要革新者,以便在初期打入市场。)These would be the people with the great influence on the progress and direction of reseach in the country.(这些革新者就是那些具有极大的影响力、足以影响国家创业研究进程与方向的人。)
问题:adopters(采纳,使用) and adaptors(适应) 是指人还是指物?这里,好像是把研究活动当作市场来看待的。我不知道如何理解adopters and adaptors?
