Melanie, as you know we tend to use Word format for all of our documents. It allows for more text and more analysis. The ability to add in-depth analysis to the presentation is key.
Yes, I think you are correct. I attended an event in Toronto about four years ago. They have have sold out to SCIP which has since sold out to Frost and Sullivan. Thanks!
I think CI is a very narrow niche. CI used in conjuction with other types of research is in very high demand right now. Some companies are at capacity or over capacity. Just my two cents.
For every level of expertise and/or position description.
Hello, I used to be a member of Competia, are they still around?
For anyone practising CI in Canada, or anyone with Canadian clients. Or anyone who spells "neighbour" with a "U"
Hello to those in Brazil and other Portuguese speaking areas.

Profile Information
- About Me:
- 10 year veteran of prime source research. Acclaro is a strategic research firm focused on the private equity market but we use primary research as part of our data collection process. Acclaro is more focused on analysis and strategic recommendations for clients but prime source research is part of our data collection process.

- My Interest in Competitive Intelligence is:
- CI is used as one part of our data collection process. Acclaro is not a CI firm but many of our employees have CI experience from other firms.
Acclaro delivers fact-based research and insights to challenges that executives face on a daily basis. We often act as a sounding board for an executive’s new ideas, new direction or even when selecting from a multitude of good alternatives. Our work assists executives and their teams in evaluating, filtering and choosing the most profitable solutions to their quandaries. We work with three key client segments: Private Equity Firms and their Portfolio Companies as well as with Middle Market Corporations.
Our services are organized into functional and industry practices. Our M&A Business Due Diligence functional practice might be of immediate interest to Private Equity firms. However, Corporate M&A or Corporate Development executives might also find similar information useful as they investigate issues surrounding the buying or selling of company divisions.

I've compiled a list of on-line CI resources here: http://augustjackson.net/competitive-intelligence-resources/
P.S. Elen thanks for the shout-out for the CI Podcast.
Hi Richard,
Seena's book is a great way to start your CI library. Here is the link to a prior Ning discussion on this topic which I think you'll find helpful. http://competitiveintelligence.ning.com/forum/topics/the-essential-ci-library. I also use…
I am reading Seena Sharp's Competitive Intelligence Advantage and it is quickly becoming a favorite. I have read other books and found them too academic to be practical. I am compiling a list of recommended reading (books, websites, blogs, magazines…
I am reading Seena Sharp's Competitive Intelligence Advantageand it is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I have read other books, but got little practical use out of them--they were much to academic. I am trying to compile a recommended bibliogr…
I am enjoying the book, still working through it with all my other reading, but I like the practicality of it. Practitioners of the art need more than academic treaties on the subject. And thanks for making it a Kindle selection--when you travel aro…
Well getting a clean feed takes a combination of good web-sources and appropriate taxonomy-based semantic filters. It seems your friend's RSS is clean and thus it may be worth to look at his/her taxonomy. Any insight?
Indeed Richard you seem pretty well covered as far as information retrieval is concerned.
What about analysis, sharing, collaboration with others? What about aggregating those feeds together?
Any insights would be helpful.
I use e-sobi. It is a rss and podcast feed reader. I can add the feeds I want, I can store pages for later use, I can set alerts. Seems to be more powerful than the free readers. SInce you can organize it the way you want, it provides a way to quick…
