Hi Everyone,
Let's say some words to introduce me...
My studies turn around information studies and companies' strategy, I did first an Information & Communication DUT (2-years professional degree) with 4 months in Northumbria University in Newcastle, this experience gave me fluency in English. Then I did a Communication Bachelor in a dedicated CI school, the ICOMTEC. I am now on my first master year in International Economy and next year I will join the Economic War School, a well-known CI school.
I already got experiences in the CI area. I did one month internship in Geneva, tracking the ethical informations coming from the multinational companies. Then I did a 3-months internship in an aircraft company in the south of France, I got there a better knowledge of the aircraft field, of the actors and its stakes, I had to provide high-value information to the directors, and to think about a better way to share information and knowledge within the company.
I am now working as junior sales assistant in DIGIMIND, a company that provide a CI software to manage CI teams and projects.
My Interest in Competitive Intelligence is:
Networks, Knowledge Management, Sustainable Development
To make this area my job :)
Digimind has several job openings in the CI field and on the vendor side (sales, marketing).

Hey Eric,
Very nice, I really like your critical dissection of the author's convoluted and ultimately flawed, thought process which you laid out very articulately. Precisely right, what exactly is the difference here? The issue of direct vs indirec…

Achieving competitive advantage through systematic competitor and market analysis
In times of increasing competition and complex, fast-moving competitive environments, it is important to be one step ahead of the competition. Businesses have to anti…
So, to take this author's point:
Gathering, analyzing and disseminating information sponsored by a major media source financed directly by a combination of pharma, oil, and automotive companies: ethically honorable.
