Intangible Assets
It is said business operates in a world that is increasingly driven by intangible assets. As society becomes more developed, investment has evolved into things that we cannot see or touch – such as brands, human capital, software, patents, non fungible tokens, and beyond.
In this revealing three-part interview series, hosted by globally recognized innovation strategist Shawn Kanungo, CBV business valuation specialists share an expert purview of intangible assets from their respective areas of professional practice in financial reporting (Tiki Cheung, CBV), litigation (Chris Polson, CBV), and private equity (Kevin Hutchinson, CBV).
Intangible Asset Valuations: Bridging the Gap
Without a doubt, the valuation of intangible assets is complex, difficult, and sometimes hairy. It is also risky, as it is future-looking and necessitates making informed assumptions about uncertain and unknown events. The CBV profession in Canada has been valuing businesses and intangible assets for over 50 years. To provide these services requires specialized education and accreditation.

Why is it important to value cryptoassets and value them appropriately? Above all, what drives value in cryptoassets?
