Argumentary

Nowadays, the world business is characterized by the globalization of markets and the development of information technology. In fact, economic intelligence has emerged as a powerful implement for the competitiveness of countries and societies. Indeed, the contribution of intelligence lies in its ability to mobilize strategic information, skills and knowledge.

Economic intelligence is considered as a tool for decision support or a skill to understand a complex environment in order to make the right decision.

Moreover, knowing how to control the environment is more than vital for both companies and nations, especially where the global economy is marked by economic and informational war.

In Africa, economic intelligence is considered as a key imperative for countries wishing to join the international economy. This is a significant component of economic development, which is one of African countries challenges in order to integrate the world economy.

Indeed, the actors of the economic intelligence in Africa aim to be inspired by the experiments foreigners, to develop African initiatives while taking into account the specificities cultural.

However, few scientific articles deal with the practice of economic intelligence or the strategic monitoring in the continent.
