BRINT Institute

The BRINT Institute is the New York based social enterprise with its primary focus on knowledge management and business technology management. It is internationally recognized for its contributions to the foundation and global dissemination of these two new technology management research and practice areas. Its mission since 1994 has focused on developing leading edge thinking and practice on contemporary business, technology, and knowledge management issues to facilitate organizational and individual performance, success, and fulfillment. BRINT (short for 'Business Research in Information and Technology') was originally conceived to bridge the gaps between business and technology, data and knowledge, and theory and practice as reported by June 1998 issue of Fortune.
