Change Drivers for 2017 & Beyond

- inspired by the 2016 SCIP Portugal Christmas Dinner -

The Portuguese Competitive Intelligence community Christmas Dinner is now an institutionalised event. This year, the second under the SCIP Portugal Chapter umbrella, innovated in content and format.

A new Social Learning approach was used with great effect with four top experts in the fields of Intelligence — Helena Rêgo, Geopolitics and Economics — José Felix Ribeiro, Cybersecurity- João Barreto, and Data Protection — Manuel Melo, whom accepted the challenge to discuss these topics in a deliberate small and private SCIP’s Portugal forum.

A few lucky ones got the chance to seat at the table, hence this article to contribute with actionable insights to the community at large.

The overarching topic was 2017 Change Drivers. And the discussion topics and conclusions were quite surprising… if not, check them here.

What follows is not a summary but a collection of topics discussed and thought igniters.
