The way we train and educate people on IP needs to be changed dramatically
We need to be much better at explaining what role IP plays
The most valuable company in the world doesn't make most of their own components, software, and products. That is the value of intangible.
Some companies are appointing a Chief of IP role, which is really smart.
All forms of IP are going through a change
Do you allow AI to become an inventor?

-The impact of AI is being felt in the later stages of the innovation funnel.
- Some large corporations are experimenting with topic modeling and NPL in the front end of the lifecycle, primarily in the drug discovery space; but overall, covid-19 hasn’t really been an accelerant of digital R&D.
-Data science is finding a foothold in the manufacturing sector, supply chain, and in the CPG world where AI is being used to better understand customers and those insights are trickling back into the innovation flow.
-
The vast majority of companies are not well-positioned to leverage the amount of data they have.

Summary: This episode will explore the intangible asset classes that are driving company values up, the rise of IP-based transactions, and strategies for companies seeking to maximize the value of their intellectual capital. Today's guest is Dr. James Gregory.
About James
Dr. Gregory is a leading expert on corporate brand management and developer of breakthrough strategies to measure, value, and manage intangible assets to improve a corporation's financial performance.
Most notable of the tools that Jim has developed is the CoreBrand Index® (CBI), a quantitative research vehicle that continuously tracks the reputations and financial performances of over 800 publicly traded companies in 50 industries. This pioneering work is utilized at the board level to evaluate current and project future potential corporate performance. Dr. Gregory is a senior fellow at The Conference Board, where he is leading a task force entitled, "Making Intangibles Tangible."
Key Moments From Dr. James Gregory's Interview
- The CoreBrand Index (CBI) is a quantitative, longitudinal research study that started in 1990, designed to be a management tool for CEOs, not to drive market cap.
- The CBI considers the perspective of outside, impartial observers (business execs, high volume consumers from outside the industry), in four key areas - overall reputation, perception of management, investment potential, and culture of innovation.
- Patents and trademarks are one of the few things that show up periodically on a company's balance sheet or in their annual report, as a subjective measurement.
- The events of COVID-19 have increased the value of R&D and the growth of intangible assets as an asset class.
- Brand and marketing will never be a part of generally accepted accounting principles; instead, they need to develop very simple systems for understanding their value and reporting it on a consistent basis.
