1st International Summer School on Intellectual Capital

The first Summer School on Intellectual Capital aimed at bringing together different people from diverse disciplines, academics and practitioners alike, who would have an opportunity to share knowledge about intellectual capital and innovations. During the Summer School the participants interacted and worked in interdisciplinary teams. The keynotes and presentations allowed the participants to learn how to generate something new across the boundaries of disciplines.

Our Summer School covered broad interpretative issues and new research directions focusing on:

• Intellectual Capital Evaluation;
• Change Management;
• Relational Capital and Cluster Effects Analysis;
• Intangible Drivers of Innovation.
