ABSTRACT This study presents a detailed analysis of research developed on Business Intelligence in Latin America, between 2000 and 2012. The data of this study was taken from the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature,SCOPUS. It was analysed using the methodology proposed by Alan Porter. The software used to support the scientometric analysis techniques was The Vantage Point. The results show an increasing growth in literature on Business Intelligence, which has increased from 22 items in 2000 to 261 in 2012. Additionally, it is evident that the most of the researched topics are related with data mining and that Brazilian Institutions produce most of the literature in the region: approximately 56% of the publications come from this country.
