Program today: You Say IP, I Say IPR

Accountants document on the balance sheet that which: (a) is a diminishing fraction of enterprise value; (b) excludes the innovations and business processes comprising intellectual properties (and rights) that create above-average profits; and (c) is of passing interest to risk and financial executives concerned with cash flow.

Are the rules and language of accounting a hindrance to the creation and monetization of intellectual properties, or irrelevant?

Join me Friday, 6 August, at 12h00 EDT for the Mission Intangible Monthly Briefing as I interview
