Claudia Clayton said… - The conference was very well done, Derek. You and August did a fantastic job. The only thing we wanted was more - more networking, more time to get to all the great sessions, etc. When you want more of something, that means it's really good. And thanks for agreeing to take the job! Best, Claudia

Chris Hote said… - Congrats Derek for the great job done running the SCIP 09 program committee. Being occupied at the Digimind booth, I did not get a chance to directly participate in conferences however I discussed with several attendees who witnessed their appreciation attending the SCIP 09 millesime.

- Great work chairing SCIP09 last week Derek - you and program committee put together an important collective contribution to the CI field. I just thought I'd say that in "public" here ;-) for once, since I only ever give kudos privately.
Treacy was a killer keynote too - I pulled nuggets to my Twitter feed if you want to review - http://twitter.com/arikjohnson - one of the best I've ever seen... and I've seen a few.

SCIP09 Chicago Conference Review
As I've been reflecting this week on the key takeaways of SCIP’s International Conference & Exhibition in Chicago last week, I wanted to extend a thank you to all of you that attended and caused the conference to be engaging to our intellects and extremely fun to attend. I want to personally thank my Vice Chair, August Jackson, for all of his work surrounding the conference – I can say confidently, we’re all in very good hands with August as he prepares the team for SCIP10’s program in D.C.… Continue

I really enjoyed Leonard Fuld's Secret Language of Competitive Intelligence. I thought it was a capstone work of an illustrious career and explained the discipline in serious yet accessible language. It represented the state of the industry in the 2…
As we say goodbye to the "Naughty Oughties" I'm compiling a list of the best books for competitive intelligence - which do you recommend?
