assets including

- The Comprehensive intellectual capital management model – classification:
- Knowledge resources = raw resources that support production, other
processes, and decision making – hence create value
- Innovation resources = processes, networks, and relations used to
extract value from knowledge resources
- Intellectual properties = rights to protect a competitive territory
used to maximize value capitalized from commercializing IC
