With more than 87% of business value derived from intangible assets, it’s imperative to know what intangibles your company owns and to safeguard those assets. It’s also critical to recognize how those assets contribute to revenue, sustainability and, ultimately, to the company’s valuation. Therefore, businesses need to leverage and extract value from their intangibles to reduce the risks associated with not doing so.
Saltare offers an array of consulting services to guide companies through the lifecycle of their intangible assets.
Our highly-experienced team of specialists brings together a wealth of experience in all phases of the process:
· Identify and assess the organization’s intangible assets
· Protect and manage risks associated with those assets
· Value the organization’s complete portfolio of assets with the Saltare Enhanced Valuation

We identify on- and off-balance sheet intangible assets and determine how these assets drive current and future economic and strategic value for the business.

The assessment phase answers questions such as:
