Demystifying Intangible Assets for Investors

A pragmatic approach is required to demystify intangible assets from a business perspective, whilst simultaneously understanding both sides of the investor/founder dynamic.


Why?


Intangible assets make up over 90% of the value of a business – more so for start-ups. Yet, these assets can be difficult to recognise and their relevance (or not) to an investible enterprise is often not appreciated. Founders generally do not showcase their intangibles well, and investors can be reluctant to make the effort to understand them. Yet, intangibles (or intellectual property) can be a tipping point around purchase and investment decisions.


This session will:

  • Aid investors in quickly identifying what intangible assets give businesses competitive edge, whether internal systems, data, technological advances, design features, or brand.
  • Explain the best protection and exploitation mechanisms that can secure the advantages given by those competitive edges.
  • Provide inspirational, real-life examples of successful IP savvy businesses.
