Business innovation is something often created by the intermingling of diverse cultures. Often as experienced in history, it has been transferred from one culture to another by immigrants bringing with them secrets of their mother country. One such was the introduction of the double-entry book-keeping accounting method brought forth by Indian immigrants to South Africa in the late 19^th century. A recent such development has been the introduction of turmeric as a medical healer in the formal healthcare sector of North America.

Now the wider world is appreciating its various beneficial properties.
