The Institute for Competitive Intelligence announces the launch of a new “Insight Center“ on its website (http://competitive-intelligence.com/insight-center).

This CI Insight Center provides cutting edge know-how in the field of Competitive Intelligence. Visitors will initially be able to view from a selection of 11 video streams consisting of practitioner presentations originally given at the International Competitive Intelligence Conference 2011, in Bad Nauheim, Germany. Presentations by leading practitioners from major international companies include Implementation of Competitive Intelligence Communities, Measuring the Return of Intelligence, Industry Structure Analysis and Competitive Technical Intelligence. Each presentation lasts about 50 minutes and costs just €59,50 (including VAT).

“The field of competitive intelligence has often been criticised in the past as backward looking and without much development”, explains ICI’s Director Rainer Michaeli. “One way of addressing this issue is to make these high quality presentations widely available to an audience beyond the conference attendees. We hope that our Insight Center will help to steepen the learning curve of many Competitive Intelligence professionals. Through this new initiative ICI will continue with its mission to deliver excellence in Competitive Intelligence thinking and practice.
