Innovation is the creation of better or more effective products, processes, services, technologies, or ideas that are accepted by markets, governments, and society. Innovation differs from invention in that innovation refers to the use of a new idea or method, whereas invention refers more directly to the creation of the idea or method itself. Innovation differs from improvement in that innovation refers to the notion of doing something different (Lat. innovare: "to change") rather than doing the same thing better.
The word innovation derives from the Latin word innovatus, which is the noun form of innovare "to renew or change," stemming from in—"into" + novus—"new". Diffusion of innovation research was first started in 1903 by seminal researcher Gabriel Tarde, who first plotted the S-shaped diffusion curve. Tarde (1903) defined the innovation-decision process as a series of steps that includes:
Ever since the invention of innovation the number of definitions of innovation seems to grow even faster than the number of researchers and practitioners in innovation. What is more, the term innovation seems to refer to fundamentally different matters sometimes, which is the case if one colleague calls a new product an innovation while the other two consider an innovation either the process that leads to the new product or the products market diffusion.

First verse
Flam, combustion thrustin' new versions of verses over kids heads like
halos bendin' ney brain cells like indo "n-o-va-shun' definition
different renditions of creations sorta like what I'm doin', style
that I'm usin' - wordsmith meets rap fusion if that's a category fit
for grammy like Source Awards then com-pet-tit-tors bet-tor look out
like Pack Jam once I record - "n-o-v-a-shun" the first, to influx
information no relation to wackness instead pedantic - combating prose
with passionate passages surpassing the realm of gun to-ting savages
however able da serve them like Mr. Belvedere once confronted, they
don't ever want it cuz I got my Freestyle Fellowship membership but I
will still get fit to, Ace-ya-alone - (I)"nn-o-va-shun"...
Second verse
Presentation "ori-gi-nile" - ways of thinking "ra-shun-nile" ready for
consumption to each one suckered in or rather lured by each lyric
contoured to thee com-plexity of "n-o-va-shun" I,"nn-o-v-a-shun"
bi-coastal vernacular enables one to become, a-phenomenon - a -
"sen-sa-shun" ac-com-pa-nee-ing pa-rump-pa-pum-pums - "n-o-vashun"...
Third verse
Finer degrees or shall I say meters of rap and poetry combine to make
this one topic of discussion, you heard dat sh*t "n-o-va-shun"
Bahamadia must be one of tha last pioneers in captivity, linking vocal
tones and microphones to holy matrimony, each song composed in ritual
ceremonies - for sight exceeds that of modern day prophet Rambonie,
