Literature surrounding the topic of entrepreneurship, innovation and cosmopolitanism, indeed has been widely discussed, often have the subtopics been referred as a separate entity to a common subtopic. Whilst this ignores the opportunity for each of the subheadings to be associated, the body of literature clearly supports the existence of entrepreneurship, innovation and cosmopolitanism yet rarely does literature address the association between innovation and entrepreneurship in a cosmopolitan society under a common typology.

Yet as this paper has also dawned upon the literature which amplifies that not all is optimistic, many authors warn against the rapid collection of cosmopolitanism, many external factors interplay with the affairs of innovation and inevitably entrepreneurship.
