Transformative Approaches to Intellectual Capital Management – A Fireside Chat with Bill Elkington
The preponderance of companies’ equity value resides in its intellectual capital; most experts calculate this to be at 60-90 percent. Yet often, there is no cadre of business experts charged with leading the management of intellectual capital in enterprises today. In this fireside chat, thought leader Bill Elkington will discuss how to overcome this problem – and how an organization’s businesspeople and its legal department can most successfully work together in this joint approach. Bill draws on his career in three Fortune 500 companies, a startup, and now in his consulting company; his work when he was president and chair of the Licensing Executives Society USA and Canada and chair of its Standards Board; and his time as one of a dozen people sitting on a government/industry committee to examine the US's laws and regulations regarding intellectual capital transactions in Department of Defense contracting.
