Corporate-E
Never let it be said that corporate espionage, industrial espionage (competitive intelligence) or whatever you want to call it is dead. The DOJ is wrapping up an ongoing probe into why documents, outlining their plan for a new series of luxury hotels, from Starwood Hotels & Resorts ended up with Hilton Worldwide. Did someone from Starwood mistakenly take a copy of a report with them in their briefcase or on their computer before they left the company and thought it would be alright to use it at their new job? The Wall Street Journal article entitled Hotel Feud Prompts Grand Jury Into Probe takes a look at the sequence of events which led to the Grand Jury. To view noteworthy instances where industrial secrets were taken NASA has put up the Notable Industrial Espionage Cases site.
