The vergence of technology and innovation is also labelled according to its direction. 
There  is  horizontal  vergence, vertical  vergence and  cyclovergence.  Horizontal  vergence  is 
divided  into  convergence  (positive  vergence)  and  divergence  (negative  vergence). 
Convergence allows us to compare and generalize technologies and innovations by looking 
for  commonalities  between  them.  Divergence,  on  the  other  hand,  allows  us  to  see  the 
differences  between  them,  which  essentially  enriches  them.  Vertical  vergence  is  the 
construction of a management core. Cyclovergence allows the "life cycles" of technology and 
innovation to be captured to some extent.
