Research Republic

Research Republic's Rohit Lekhi presented the report, 'Accounting for Intangibles: Financial reporting and value creation in the knowledge economy' to partners at The Work Foundation. Starting with the "value paradox", in which it is increasingly difficult to account for knowledge-based assets while these become increasingly important in the knowledge economy, it outlined how intangible assets in the public sector can be used towards creating public value, and gave recommendations for policymakers on how to resolve the value paradox. They were joined by speakers from the Cabinet Office and the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising.
