The paper presents the theory-building of the inspiration economy that came through longitudinal work of five and a half years of field experimentation. The observations and reflections from other theory-building journey show the importance of inspiration currency in the different models utilised in the theory of inspiration economy. An analysis of the socio-economic influence that each of the micro-theories brings helps to take into account the importance of using each of these theories at the right time and place. Realising the significance of inspiration economy theory constructs in exploiting the intrinsic resources help to bring new approaches that emphasise the importance of inspiration economy towards both community’s growth and development. The contributions of this theory to contemporary and foresighted unprecedented challenges are exploited; however, further studies are recommended.
