Competitiveness and the Value of Intangible Assets by Pierre-André Buigues Book PDF Summary
Contains 17 papers from the April 1999 conference, in which economists, statisticians, administrators, and consultants from around Europe analyze the impact of intangible assets (e.g., RandD, human capital, innovation in product and organization, trademarks, and patents, networking and software) on economic performance at the level of companies, sectors, and the economy as a whole. After much empirical evidence and comparisons with the economies of the US and Japan, the contributors conclude that government policies (national, European, and international) must recognize the fact that intangible investment is becoming the key element in bringing about durable growth.
