AWARE Competitive Intelligence Resources
Recommended Web Sites for CI Research
This page links to a brief selection of some of the sites that AWARE uses when looking for competitive and marketing intelligence. There are many more - over the years we have compiled a large list of sites that we use for research.
The lists are biased towards UK / English language resources. This is not to say that major non-English resources are not important - they are. However to keep the lists to a manageable level we have excluded some local language sites - which include country specific search tools, local newspapers, and other business resources.
Part of the secret to effective competitive intelligence is to know where to look for information. We offer training in how to use the Internet for finding business intelligence, and have led workshops and seminars on this topic across the globe. If you are interested in learning more about using the Internet and online sources for competitive intelligence research, contact us. Or visit our Services Page to see how we can help you today!
Source Categories
We try and keep all links up-to-date. However sites frequently change or disappear. Please let us know if you find any dead links, or if you want us to add your site onto any of our source pages.

SCIP European Conference 2008 / International Online Conference & Exhibition
Arthur Weiss, AWARE's managing partner led his acclaimed full-day workshop on Using Online Sources for Competitive Intelligence Research at the SCIP Annual Conference in San Diego, California in April 2008.
The SCIP workshop, a fully revised and updated version, included practical exercises, a review of new developments such as Web 2.0 sites and much more. Previous AWARE workshops and masterclasses on the same topic have received high praise for their unique approach to finding competitive intelligence on the Internet and have been given at workshops and conferences across the globe! The workshop aim is to teach attendees how to find CI rather than just present a list of sources that quickly date.
For more information on the workshop and how it can help you become a more effective Internet researcher ask us about our courses on finding CI information.

Arthur Weiss was interviewed by Paul Helm, the president of Strategic Research Network, as part of the InfoPro show on WS Radio - The worldwide leader in Internet talk.
