Getting News on Specific Industries

What do people use to get Industry specific updates?

I work as an accountant for a company selling Activated Carbon. So i think it would be useful to keep up to date with current industry news. Our CEO recently sent round an email advising everyone of a takeover of a competitor and i had no idea they even existed!

Obviously the BBC isn't going to have a section dedicated to this! So curious what other people use. I don't really use LinkedIn but imagine it could be useful to follow specific companies.

Otherwise is it a case of setting up an RSS feed?

I use this for all my news needs.

Under 'Business and Finance' you might find some good stuff.

We have a lot of operations in Asia so being able to keep up on current affairs in the Philippines and a Vietnam would be good too so will try that.

look into google alerts: https://www.google.co.uk/alerts

You can basically set filters to send you information on certain subjects in certain areas. Very good for staying up to date
