ABSTRACT

Integral innovation is a purposeful effort to navigate through different types, forms and phases of innovation such as social, ecological, institutional, technological and economic. Integral innovation is simply the ability to see and utilize the webs of life. Integral innovation is simply about the web of ecosystems and cultures that contribute to integral innovation. Integral innovation is an attempt to harness the internet of ideas and the web of cultures to develop innovative nations. In the twenty-first century, the developing world is at the threshold of redefining a new path for prosperity and sustainability that is rooted in integral innovation. This implies that there must be continuity between individual and community innovation and that this must also be integrated with both organizational and national innovation. At the technological domain, the evolution of technology is an integral part of the progress of society.
