Description
The Rise of the Intangible Economy: A New Era for Business and Growth. A quiet revolution has transformed the way businesses invest in assets. For the first time, major developed economies are prioritising intangible assets such as design, branding, and software over tangible assets like machinery and buildings. This shift is driving long-term success for many companies, but it's also had significant implications for economic inequality and productivity. Jonathan Haskel and Stian Westlake explore the unique characteristics of intangible investment and how they differ from traditional economies based on tangibles. They discuss the opportunities and challenges presented by an economy rich in intangibles and provide insights into how managers, investors, and policymakers can harness these trends to drive growth. By examining the role of intangible assets in modern business, Capitalism without Capital offers a fresh perspective on the future of economic success.
