“…The types of innovation are extremely complex and diverse (Edquist, 2001), and there are many types of innovation in general and tourism innovation in particular.

Although there is an agreement among some researchers on the existence of four main types of tourism innovation, there is a wide range of research and studies like Caulier-Grice et al (2012), Janiszek (2018) and Carayannis et al (2015) that dealt with other types of innovation in the field of tourism such as green innovation, technological innovation, and social innovation.…”
