Abstract

Innovation is a key driver of competitiveness and economic growth, especially for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). However, the real economic value of innovation is often poorly recognized because intellectual property (IP) is intangible. The research paper investigates the importance of intellectual property valuation in MSMEs for financing, strategic decision making, commercialization and risk management. The paper discusses common valuation methods, challenges faced by MSMEs and policy recommendations to improve IP valuation practices. It finds that robust IP valuation frameworks can enable MSMEs to realize hidden value, attract investment and sustain long-term growth.
