ABSTRACT
The present section articulates some implications for the decision-making process spurring from the valuation approaches analysed in this book. Beforehand, it is worth mentioning that the analysis has regarded two main valuation approaches according to the type of results generated, monetary versus nonmonetary. Chapter 1 introduced three traditional approaches for the monetary valuation of patent assets: cost-based approaches concerning the appraisal of the investments required to obtain an asset, market-based approaches relying on value benchmarks obtained from direct or similar market transactions of the asset, and revenue-based approaches consisting on the estimation of future cash-flows generated by the asset.
