Navigating Competitive Intelligence: Perspectives and Challenges

April 18, 2024

Competitive Intelligence is the ethical collection and analysis of information to provide actionable intelligence for informed decision-making. The Competitive Intelligence Working Group (CIWG) is open to anyone who is currently performing strategic and competitive intelligence activities, or interested in learning more about this growing area in research development. Our members are primarily professional staff in higher education who are advancing the research activities of their institutions. 
 
The CIWG meets and discusses best practices, shares useful resources, and creates a network of academic professionals across the nation who seek to define how CI is used and is perceived in the academic environment. This group connects with colleagues from other universities to expand our understanding of how research development professionals are working with CI and to share common issues and interests. 

Navigating Competitive Intelligence: Perspectives and Challenges
Join us for an enlightening discussion by a diverse panel of CI practitioners on the challenges and progress they have experienced as they develop best practices for CI in their institutions. How do they approach delivering CI for different audiences (for example, leadership vs. faculty)? What resonates with their customers? Our panel includes:

  • Bridget Hughes, Director, Research Program Development, University of Utah Health
  • Lisa Nanstad, Research Development Strategist, Research and Innovation Office, University of Colorado Boulder
  • Sabrina Woo, Data Analyst, Research Analytics, University of Missouri 
  • Hansa Magee, Director, Research Analytics, University of Missouri 
  • Jill Wiley, Assistant Director, Research Development Office, University of Iowa
