Summary

A better way to value the profitability and risk of R&D projects New technology and R&D initiatives affect companies in both the service and manufacturing sector. It's estimated that half a trillion dollars is spent worldwide each year on such efforts. Technology Valuation Solutions + CD-ROM offers a methodology along with illustrative cases for valuing the profitability and risk of R&D projects. A companion to Boer's earlier work, The Valuation of Technology (0-471-31638-5), this book provides additional material that will help readers assess a wide variety of projects and business scenarios. In addition to the in-depth case studies, this book includes a CD-ROM featuring valuation templates that readers can customize for their own individual needs. F. Peter Boer (Boynton Beach, FL) is President and CEO of Tiger Scientific, Inc., a firm specializing in science and technology consulting and investments. Presently, he is actively engaged with several companies who are adopting option-based valuation methods to their R&D portfolios.
