The Institute for Advanced Studies of National Defense (IHEDN), for which the mission is to distribute & deepen the spirit of defense, has included since 1996 a sensitivity to economic intelligence among its priorities. As a part of this work it coordinates with other government agencies & also attempts to respond to the needs of businesses. The gathering & distribution of pertinent economic information are key to the efficiency of the commercial strategy. IHEDN has thus brought into being more & more specialized information strategies that correspond to the diversity of expectations of different sectors. In addition to its traditional audience of scholars & students, the institute now aims to speak directly to companies about economic intelligence. Adapted from the source document.
