The Definitions of Digital Intelligence

In our previous blog, The Simplicity of Digital Intelligence, we started by saying digital intelligence is the intersectional union of converging business intelligence and diverging digital transformation. We, at Celeix Digital, believe simplicity is the ultimate sophistication and came out with that definition on a piece of paper that you see in this blog’s thumbnail. In this blog, we take to defining that union. There already exists a market nascent enough, yet to be named though, but it exists all the same. The definitions listed below are its proofs. Note that these definitions belong to the citations in bold and italics contain their definitions in em dashes (—), closing out with their contribution in short syntax arrows (=>).
