Knowledge Management (KM) and Competitive Intelligence (CI) are two fields that have evolved independently both in theory and practice. Despite the fact that CI and KM share a strong focus on strategic importance, and both rely heavily on the processing of various types of data, information and knowledge resources, the links between KM and CI have not been extensively explored. This paper seeks to explore the relationships that exist between the two fields both at the conceptual and empirical levels to better delineate the differences and intersections between these two fields and to develop a more integrated approach to information and knowledge processing.
