Abstract
A system and method for computing the value of an emerging technology is provided. The method may provide an automated process to provide objective data for valuation of a given technology. The method may use a multi-variant algorithm that has weighted measures, such as multiple parameters having one or more subsegments. Each parameter may be assigned a variable relative to its importance to the success of the ultimate success of the technology and each subsegment within a parameter may be given a different value. Information regarding a particular technology may be entered and an overall value of a technology determined.
Claims15
A system for determining the value of a technology comprising:
- a processor configured for receiving information relative to a first parameter associated with a technology;
- an input device for providing the processor with information about the technology;
- wherein the first parameter is configured to provide indicia of the success of the technology in the market place;
- and
- wherein the processor uses the information provided from the input device to generate a valuation of the technology.
A computer-implemented method for determining the value of a technology comprising the steps of:
- selecting a plurality of parameters, each parameter having one or more subsegments;
- assigning differing values for the one or more subsegments associated with each parameter;
- selecting a technology and choosing a subsegment of the one or more subsegments that best describes the technology for each parameter;
- adding the values of the one or more subsegments chosen for each parameter to obtain a value for the technology;
- wherein the plurality of parameters and the one or more subsegments are configured to provide objective information about the success of the technology in the market place.
