PROXY STATEMENT
Inova Technology Inc. (the “Company” or “Inova”) is a Nevada corporation with its principal executive offices located at 233 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 400, Santa Monica 90401. This proxy statement is being sent to the Company’s shareholders by the Board of Directors for the 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held on November 26, 2007, beginning at 2:00 pm Pacific Standard Time at the Company’s headquarters at 233 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 400, Santa Monica 90401, and at any postponements or adjournments of the Annual Meeting.The enclosed proxy is being solicited by the Board of Directors of the Company.
This proxy statement is dated November 5, 2007.
Proxy Solicitation
The Company is paying all costs of preparing, assembling and mailing this proxy statement. The Company has made arrangements to forward copies of proxy materials to brokerage houses, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for forwarding of proxy soliciting material to the beneficial owners of the common stock of the Company at the Company’s expense. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, some of the officers, directors and regular employees of the Company may without additional compensation solicit proxies by telephone or personal interview. The Company will bear the costs of these solicitations.
Voting and Revocability of Proxies
The persons’ names in the enclosed form of proxy are officers and directors of the Company. Shareholders are encouraged to complete the enclosed proxy and return it to the Company as soon as possible. Any person who completes the enclosed proxy may revoke it at any time prior to its exercise by delivering to the Secretary of the Company either a signed statement revoking the proxy or a properly executed proxy bearing a later date. A shareholder may also revoke a proxy by attending the Annual Meeting and voting his or her shares personally. Proxies that have been properly dated, signed and returned will be voted in accordance with the instructions given by the shareholder. If a proxy is signed and returned but no voting instructions are given, each valid proxy will be voted in the election of directors FOR those nominees presented by the Board of Directors, and FOR ALL other resolution presented. Should any other business properl y come before the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the proxy shall be allowed to vote on such matter(s) as those persons determine in their discretion.
Abstentions will be counted as shares present or represented and entitled to vote for the purposes of determining whether a quorum exists at the Annual Meeting. Shareholders of record as of the close of business on October 25, 2007 are entitled to notice of the Annual Meeting and to vote in person or by proxy.
The common stock of the Company is the only class of outstanding securities entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the close of business on November 2, 2007, there were 728,088,082 shares of common stock outstanding. Of this amount, 600,000,000 shares are entitled to vote. A description of the Company’s common stock is found below. The presence of holders of a majority of the outstanding and authorized shares of common stock, either in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting.
Dissenting shareholders will not have a right of appraisal under Nevada corporate law.
Description of the Company’s Common Stock
The common stock of the Company is the only class of outstanding securities. Our common stock has a par value of $0.001 per share.
As of the close of business on November 2, 2007, there were 728,088,082 shares of Common Stock issued. However, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation only permit the issuance of a maximum of 600,000,000 shares. As a result,
128,088,082 of these shares are not validly issued under Nevada corporate law. Because these shares were not validly issued, they are not entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
The excess number of shares was issued when holders of our preferred stock converted their shares of preferred stock into common stock. After the purported conversion, the Company realized that it had surpassed the maximum authorized number of shares. As described in Proposal Number 2 below, the Company aims to remedy this matter.
SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The following table sets forth certain information known to the Company regarding the beneficial ownership of its common stock as of October 25, 2007 by(i) each person or group known by the Company to own beneficially more than five percent (5%) of its outstanding common stock;(ii) each of its directors and each executive officer;and (iii) its directors and executive officers, as a group.
The Company has determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As used herein, a person is deemed to be the “beneficial owner” of a security if he or she has or shares voting or investment power with respect to such security, or has the right to acquire such ownership within sixty (60) days. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons included in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned thereby. As used herein, “voting power” includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of shares, and “investment power” includes the power to dispose or to direct the disposition of shares, irrespective of any economic interest therein.

Name and Address of Beneficial Owner (1) | Amount and Nature of Beneficial Ownership | % of Class (4) |
Adam Radly
| 290,309,827 (2)(4) | 48.4% |
Paul Aunger
| 239,401,723 (3) (4) | 39.9% |
Jeffrey Mandelbaum | -0- | 0% |
| | |
Officers and directors as a group (3 persons) | 529,711,550 (4) | 88.3% |
_________________
(1) Unless otherwise indicated, the address of the persons named in the table is 233 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 400, Santa
Monica, California 90401.
(2) Includes shares held by Southbase LLC.
(3) Held by Advisors LLC.
(4) As of October 25, 2007, Inova has 600,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. The former holders of our preferred stock converted their shares of preferred stock into 633,832,500 shares of common stock. However, not all of these shares have not been included for purposes of the percentage calculation above due to Inova currently having only 600,000,000 shares authorized in its Articles of Incorporation. We cannot legally issue more shares than the total number authorized by our Articles of Incorporation. Therefore, for purposes of the above calculation, we have calculated the pro rata amount that would be validly issued under Nevada law for each shareholder above. If the full converted amount were used for each member of management, the percentages would be as follows: Mr. Radly: 49.9%; Mr. Aunger: 40.2%; Mr. Mandelbaum: 0%; All directors and executives as a group: 90.1%.

Transactions with Related Persons
Our CEO, Adam Radly, has loaned the Company $693,000. The Company has not repaid any of these amounts; however, under the loan agreements, Mr. Radly may require the Company to repay these amounts at any time.
Director Independence
The Company has determined that Mr. Mandelbaum qualifies as an independent director under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules.
Audit Committee
The Company does not have an audit committee. The entire Board of Directors instead acts as the Company’s audit committee. Our board does not have an audit committee financial expert as defined by SEC rules.
Director Attendance and Board Committees
The Company’s directors meet on an informal, as-needed basis. There are no regularly scheduled Board meetings.
The Board does not require directors to attend annual meetings of shareholders, however, it encourages such attendance.
The Company does not have any standing audit, nominating or compensation committees. The Board believes that having such committees is unnecessarily bureaucratic given the Company’s small size.
The Company does not have a policy regarding the nomination of directors. The Board has not adopted such a policy because the Board believes that its current directors can effectively choose director candidates.
Shareholder Communications
Shareholders may send communications for the Company’s Board of Directors to the Company’s headquarters, 233 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 400, Santa Monica, California 90401. Shareholders may send communications to individual directors in the same manner.

Radly’s and Aunger’s salaries accrued but were not paid in order to minimize cash outflows. .
There were no outstanding equity awards at the end of our most recent fiscal year.
Mr. Mandelbaum, our independent director, serves as such without compensation.
INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Company’s independent public accountant is Malone & Bailey, P.C. (“Malone Bailey”). Malone has served as the Company’s independent public accountant since April 2007.
A representative of Malone Bailey is not expected to attend the Company’s annual meeting, and as a result, will not have the opportunity to make a statement and will not be available to respond to questions.
On May 29, 2007, DeJoya Griffith & Company, LLC (“DeJoya”), resigned as the Company’s independent public accountant. DeJoya’s resignation was accepted by the Board of Directors.
During DeJoya’s engagement, DeJoya did not prepare a report on the Company’s financial statements for the two past fiscal years.
There were no material disagreements with DeJoya as to accounting issues from February 15, 2007 (DeJoya’s engagement date) until the date of DeJoya’s resignation.
On February 15, 2007, George Brenner, CPA, a Professional Corporation (“Brenner”), resigned as the Company’s independent accountant.

There were no disagreements with Brenner on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
The decision to change accountants was approved by the Board of Directors.
Prior to engaging Malone Bailey, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted Malone Bailey regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Inova’s financial statements.
AUDIT FEES
For fiscal year 2007, audit and audit related fees were $79,152. For fiscal year 2006, we were billed $43,062 for our year-end audit.
PROPOSAL NUMBER 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Manner of Electing Directors
The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors shall be the number determined by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has set the number of directors at three, and there are currently three members on the Board of Directors. Persons may be nominated for election to the Board of Directors by the shareholders upon the making of a proper motion at the Annual Meeting. Three directors are to be elected at the Annual Meeting to serve until the following annual meeting of shareholders. The Board of Directors will present at the Annual Meeting for election Mr. Adam Radly, Mr. Paul Aunger, and Mr. Jeffrey Mandelbaum. The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR Messrs. Radly, Aunger, and Mandelbaum. Mr. Radly, Mr. Aunger, and Mr. Mandelbaum are currently members of the Board of Directors.
Persons receiving a plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting will be elected to the Board of Directors. A “plurality” means that the individuals who receive the largest number of votes cast are elected as directors up to the maximum number of directors to be chosen. Votes against any candidate and any shares not voted (such as by abstention) will have no impact on the election of directors. All proxies will be voted FOR the election of each of these nominees unless authority to vote for the election of any nominee or nominees is withheld by the shareholder giving the proxy. If any nominees should unexpectedly decline or be unable to act as a director, the proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee to be designated by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors does not believe that any nominee will decline to serve.
Background information with respect to the nominee for election to the Board of Directors is set forth below.

The Board of Directors recommends a voteFORall nominees.
PROPOSAL NO. 2: IMPLEMENTATION OF A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF THE COMPANY’S STOCK.
The Company’s Board of Directors has approved a resolution to implement a reverse stock split within the range of 50-to-1 to 1,000 to 1. Under the stock split, each shareholder will receive the number of shares equal to his current number of shares held divided by the split ratio. The share price will be adjusted accordingly after the split.
This reverse stock split will not affect the number of authorized shares of the Company.
Nevada corporate law requires that a majority of shareholders with voting rights approve a resolution to conduct a stock
split.
The terms of the Company’s common stock will not change as a result of the reverse stock split.
Fractional shares obtained as a result of the reverse stock split will be paid in cash.
The holders of the Company’s Preferred Stock are our directors and officers. In their capacity as such, they have determined that it would be in the Company’s best interest to submit an application to list the Company’s common shares on either the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) or the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). However, both of these exchanges have certain listing requirements, one of which is a minimum quotation price.
Inova’s stock currently trades at approximately one cent ($0.01) per share. The minimum price requirement for AMEX is $3 per share. With a reverse stock split, our share price should reach close to the minimum price per share for AMEX listing.
The Company is also proposing this action because the Company has surpassed the maximum authorized amount of shares authorized in its Articles of Incorporation. These excess shares were issued when the holders of our Preferred Stock converted their shares into common stock. Each share of preferred stock was convertible into 25.3533 shares of common stock.
The Company accepted the conversion requests and issued the common stock to the holders of the preferred stock. However, the Company later realized that it had surpassed the maximum amount of authorized shares. As a result, the Company is proposing to remedy this matter by implementing a reverse stock split. As a result, if shareholders approve the reverse stock split, the number of outstanding shares will be less than the number of authorized shares of the Company.
If shareholders approve the reverse stock split, the Company’s officers and directors would stand to benefit because the shares issued to them upon conversion of their preferred stock would then become legally valid and issued. Currently, some of the shares of common stock issued to Advisors LLC and Southbase LLC, entities related to our directors and officers, are not valid because they were issued in excess of the amount authorized by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation.
This proposal will also enable the Company to issue new shares to new investors, if necessary for the Company’s financing plans. The Company is currently unable to issue new shares to new investors because all shares that may be issued from its authorized capital have already been issued. This proposal aims to remedy this problem.
The Board of Directors recommends a voteFORProposal Number 2.
PROPOSAL NUMBER 3: AUTHORIZATION OF A STOCK DIVIDEND TO BE PAID IN SHARES OF THE COMPANY’S AUSTRALIAN SUBSIDIARY.
The Company has established an Australian subsidiary, Inova Technology Australia Limited (“Inova Australia”). Inova Australia is in the process of raising capital in Australia by issuing new shares in Inova Australia to Australian investors. After undertaking this private placement, Inova Australia will then list its shares on the Australian Stock Exchange (“ASX”).
However, prior to undertaking the private placement in Australia, the Company wishes to distribute 10% of its shareholding in Inova Australia to Inova’s shareholders. The Company desires to distribute these shares as a stock dividend because Inova Australia needs at least 500 shareholders in order to list Inova Australia’s securities on the ASX.
Consequently, in order to meet this ASX requirement, the Company’s Board of Directors has approved a resolution for the Company to distribute 10% of its shares in Inova Australia to the Company’s stockholders as a stock dividend.
The Company has no plans to register the Inova Australia shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result, stockholders may not be able to sell their shares in the United States. However, once Inova Australia’s ASX listing becomes effective, stockholders will be able to freely sell their shares on the ASX through an Australian stockbroker.
The Board of Directors believes that this stock dividend is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders because Inova Australia will be able to raise capital much more easily in its private placement in Australia if the prospective shareholders know that Inova Australia meets all of the requirements for ASX listing. Because Inova will continue to own a significant percentage of Inova Australia’s shares, this will also benefit Inova and its shareholders.
The Board of Directors recommends a voteFORProposal Number 3.
Shareholder Proposals
Shareholder proposals for presentation for next year’s annual meeting must be received by the Company by no later than July 28, 2008. Any proposal received after this date will be considered untimely.
INFORMATION INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB is incorporated by reference and is being provided to shareholders along with this Proxy Statement.
OTHER MATTERS
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, management does not intend to present any other items of business and is not aware of any matters to be presented for action at the Special Meeting other than those described above. However, if any other matters should properly come before the Special Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named as proxies in the accompanying proxy card to vote in accordance with their best judgment on such matters.
