Though, the innovative technology system is yet an essential and challenging topic of research in economics, marketing, management and most actions have focused on the comprehension of this process in developed countries rather than in developing ones.

Since the late 1990’s, aid from one developing country to another appears even to grow faster than aid from developed to developing countries. This is the consequence of the increasing acknowledgment of Southern countries that they share common goals and that the chances of achieving them grow if they interact together. The emerging countries achieve target to increase in the volume and value of their commerce in services, manufactures, goods and materials. Nevertheless, this also has a significant impact on the economic system. During the past three decades, Southern countries’ economies have grown much faster than the Northern nations.
