Montreal, (PRWEB) March 18, 2005

Competia is proud to announce to the Competitive Intelligence community and strategic planners that Digimind (www. digimind-corp. com), Factiva (www. factiva. com), Thomson Scientific and Healthcare (www. thomson. com), Comintell (www. comintell. com) and Denodo Technologies (www. denodo. com) have now confirmed their contribution to the success of the Competia European Symposium to be held in Barcelona, April 27-28, 2005. This event will bring together the movers and shakers from the most strategic and unavoidable practice that Competitive Intelligence (CI) has become for corporations and governments. “The continuous support and contribution of large corporations such as Digimind, Factiva and Thomson Scientific to Competia’s events is a testimonial to the value they see in our clients as well as the quality we deliver in our symposia” stated Sandrine Bélanger, the Training and Global Development for Competia, responsible for sponsorship.

Participants to this one-day conference will hear which place CI occupies in Europe, in today’s both business and public service sectors and which steps are required to increase CI’s use and efficiency for a “thrust forward” in the European economy, directly competing with Asian countries.

For its third conference in Europe, Competia will bring together in Barcelona two very special closing keynote speakers to re-enforce its theme: Mr. Bernard Carayon (www. bcarayon-ie. com) who produced an incredible report on the importance of the CI practice in France and in Europe. As well, Mr. Ricardo Bofill (www. bofill. com), the well-known Catalan architect, specialist on large-scale urban design projects, will discuss his strategy to approach new markets. Media partners for the Competia European Symposium include: Instituto Catalán de Tecnologia (www. ictonline. es), Triz XXI (www. triz. es), The Media Institute from Paris (www. media-institute. com) and The Centre for Innovation and Business Development (CIDEM - www. cidem. com).
