This book develops and illustrates a comprehensive, multi-level framework for the evaluation of industrial research and development (R&D) activities and the measurement of their performance. The framework encompasses a set of hierarchical, interrelated levels at which R&D evaluation and performance measurement could be undertaken. This enlightening book focuses on the single industrial firm to study performance measurement of R&D functions, projects and individual researchers or engineers. It also addresses R&D evaluation from the point of view of financial markets, with a focus on the relationship between R&D investments and the value of the traded firm. The book broadens tin scope to study the role of technology platforms as R&D coordination mechanisms and also looks at the evaluation of R&D policies. This book will be warmly welcomed by researchers and postgraduate students in disciplines concerned with innovation management, technology policy, and finance who wish to gain an updated overview of R&D evaluation and performance measurement as well as exploring different units of analysis.
Evaluating Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are increasingly considered the ultimate roots of company's success. This paper aims to propose a method to estimate the value embedded in Ramp;D activities, which could be used for: (i) a una tantum evaluation of a firm's value, related to specific actions such as mergers, acquisition, etc.; and (ii) a periodic evaluation, with the perspective of the economic reporting, focused to estimate the Ramp;D shareholder value creation. The proposed framework is based on the assumption that there is a strong relationship between the Ramp;D contribution to shareholder value and the operational performance of Ramp;D activities. The paper describes such a framework as well as an empirical application.Keywords: Research and development, Intangible asset, Performances measurement, Ramp;D Evaluation.
