creating knowledge capital
• the creation of value chains in a society and economy based on information prerequires the
existence, management and exploitation of knowledge capital or capital based on knowledge
[Knowledge Based Capital (KBC)]. The distinction between knowledge and knowledge capital
lies, to a great degree, in the fact that the latter can be identified autonomously or named,
measured and exchanged. The basic tool of management, exploitation and finally expansion of
Knowledge Capital is consolidation and exploitation of knowledge through the various forms of
intellectual property, measuring, indicators and records.
• At EKT, we play an active role in all of these three areas, with the emphasis on reinforcing
creativity and innovation, measuring of knowledge capital and the increase in the organisational
and entrepreneurial abilities of SMEs as well as their innovative activities through the activities
of Enterprise Europe Network.
The aim for 2014-2015
is to strengthen the whole range of activities which allow the expansion
of our Knowledge Capital at EKT, as well as provide the services which enable third parties to
expand their own Knowledge Capital.
