Among its research priorities and the various projects it has carried out to date, the Atlantic Canada Economic Information Observatory has set out to advance the study of economic and strategic intelligence as reflected by the countless examples and manifestations, which can be summed up by the concept of infostrategy—i.e. the emerging management process that leverages the convergence of information, communication and strategy in order to sustain the implementation of economic, social or community projects. By keeping a finger on the pulse of market trends, innovation, intellectual property, key competencies, know-how and relevant expertise, or even outreach and lobbying activities, organizations and communities at large are able to become more vigilant and increase the level of awareness of their competitive environment, as they strive for sustainability into the future.

This section is a repository of cases collected from across the news media, which showcase how infostrategy is being deployed on the ground.
