Buying a competitor to which you are losing in an emerging market is not innovative it's the opposite statement: We lack innovation internally and need to look outside the company.

The word innovative does n9t mean anything anymore. It became synonym with "earns a lot of money".

People who innovate without becomming super rich dont get ackwnowledged as innovative. CEO buys or copy an app - innovative.
