I caught up with Paul Adams in Amsterdam recently to chat about intangible assets.
Paul is MD (global partner) and business growth specialist at Anderson Consulting. He helps organisations to value intangible assets such as IP, brand, human capital, organisational know-how, and software.
Paul explained that more than 90% of the value of every S&P500 company is based on intangibles. For tech and AI companies it’s in the high 90’s.
That’s pretty crazy when you consider the implications of the total value of intangibles across global markets.
