Book Description
"Creative competitive intelligence" is an information-seeking and monitoring activity of an information environment for the purpose of creativity and innovation. It involves the process leading up to the development of an informational supply adapted to the inspiration of creative or innovative personnel. This dynamic aims for the recognition of novelties (ideas, products, technologies, etc.), the identification of new players in the world of creation and innovation, and the identification of forgotten or neglected developmental paths. This book is aimed at readers who already have some experience of innovation and who are now looking for new ways to discover new products under development, anticipate the design of future products, identify unexplored tracks of inventions, develop and analyze innovation strategies, or recognize the emergence of budding artists.

Book Description
Smart watches, autonomous vehicles, and talking robots are now an everyday part of life for many regions of the world. The digital revolution has now permeated nearly every facet of our existence. This surge in technological advancement has ushered in what economists term an "innovation economy." In this era, the synergy between technology and business intelligence propels groundbreaking innovations, fostering entrepreneurial ventures across various sectors. These ventures encompass an array of industries, including agriculture, fast-moving consumer goods, hospitality, cultural and indigenous products, to name just a few. While these entrepreneurial endeavors bring forth creativity and contribute to circular economies within communities, not all manage to navigate the challenging environment successfully. This raises a pressing concern how can entrepreneurs harness the power of business intelligence and innovation to achieve sustainability and a competitive edge in today's complex business landscape? Applying Business Intelligence and Innovation to Entrepreneurship brings a definitive solution to academicians, researchers, and students who seek a comprehensive understanding of the dynamic interplay between entrepreneurship, business intelligence, and innovation. By dissecting various types of organizations, from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to technology-based startups like Fintech, digital marketing, and community-driven initiatives, this book paints a vivid picture of the entrepreneurial ecosystem. It delves deep into the symbiotic relationship between local wisdom and innovation, shedding light on how entrepreneurs can seize opportunities presented by disruptive and unpredictable phenomena.

Book Description
Although competitive intelligence and contemporary marketing research evolved from different intellectual traditions, both are indebted to qualitative methods of research and analysis. Walle shows that by merging their strategies in relevant ways, both fields grow even more robust and responsive to the needs of business clients and decision makers. Written by a noted humanist/social scientist with a wide ranging background in competitive intelligence and marketing research, this book can be viewed as a breakthrough. It is the first book to juxtapose, compare, and integrate the qualitative methods of marketing research with those of competitive intelligence. Among its many important features is a discussion of how to conduct a qualitative audit that assesses the degree to which an organization is able to take full advantage of qualitative analytic techniques. Walle reminds us that the qualitative social sciences and humanities have a strong tradition within intelligence, one that dates back to World War II. Although innovations from the qualitative social sciences and humanities were developed 50 years ago, they were allowed to atrophy as the principle researchers of the time re-entered civilian life. Walle updates and revives them, and shows readers how to do it themselves for their own business purposes. The book reintroduces the World War II-era culture at a distance method that applied qualitative social sciences and humanities to intelligence, but updates them in terms of advances that have taken place since then. It also provides useful means to merge competitive intelligence and contemporary marketing research in ways that will result in collaboration and mutual understanding. Finally, Walle provides an appendix that discusses how to recruit and motivate researchers, whose training comes out of the humanities but whose contributions to business will prove of exceptional value. This is an important new resource for marketing practitioners and graduate level students and their teachers.
