About Competitive Intelligence
Business / Competitive Intelligence is research of a competitor’s organization, products, prices, financial performance, technology and strategy.
Business / Competitive Intelligence is NOT corporate espionage, stealing competitive documents or accessing a competitor’s computer files. Business Intelligence has evolved over the past 10 years and is an outgrowth of strategic planning and market research.
