Economic intelligence
Presentation
Turning information into a strategic advantage, using techniques for gathering "open" (and therefore lawful) information, but also mechanisms of economic information protection and lobbying action, are all part of is called "economic intelligence" (EI).
EI is essential to the long term viability and development of businesses. Development depends on the ability of organizations to anticipate, to secure themselves (especially their strategic information), and to shape their global environment, i.e. to influence a variety of players in a globalized and congested market. These are the pillars of economic intelligence: information watch, security, influence. EI must contribute to the development of a company's strategy. The aim of this seminar is to provide students with some basic knowledge on the subject.
