Description: "In Technology Valuation Solutions, expert Peter Boer shares the concepts, case histories, and software that he has developed over his thirty years of direct experience in managing technology and technology-based businesses. Boer skillfully combines financial perspectives, sensible management methods, and real-world experience in technology management to show you the way toward practical, value-based R&D management." "Technology Valuation Solutions is structured around a series of situations or cases requiring analysis. A problem is posed and the solution is outlined in detail. In the process, the methodology is illustrated and its features discussed. Some of the cases are designed primarily to illustrate methods, while other case provide an R&D practitioner's perspective of what the issues "feel" like at each stage of an R&D project. In addition to in-depth case studies found throughout the text, a companion CD-ROM includes Microsoft Excel templates that support the cases discussed throughout the book. You can use the CD-ROM in concert with the text or build you own models based on these software templates when confronting a new problem with its own special circumstances."--BOOK JACKET.
