Purpose: The threefold purpose of this paper is to reflect on the evolution and transformation of the Journal of Intellectual Capital (JIC) over the past 20 years, to project its future research directions, and, finally, to propose an IC ecosystem. Design/methodology/approach: We adopted a...

A methodology (based on multi‐dimensional scaling and mathematical statistics) is introduced that reduces the high dimensionality of “IC‐differencing components” into a 3‐D dimensional representation – the digital IC‐landscape. Building and maintaining a digital IC‐landscape...

After posing some questions regarding the nature of intellectual capital, the paper explores IC through observing the changes in market dynamics and organizational structure. An IC growth model is discussed which involves visualizing IC, human capital injection, human capital transformation into...

For quite a while the issues of knowledge management, innovation and performance measurement have been on the agenda of researchers and practitioners alike throughout the world. Not too long ago it was recognised that there are direct cause and effect relations between knowledge reuse and...

Purpose – This article aims to summarise a successful, pioneering prototyping project in Germany with IC statements, supported by the German Ministry of Labour and Economics (BMWA). Design/methodology/approach – A systematic process view method has been applied. A special impact scoring...

Purpose – This study proposes a model to measure national intellectual capital that can be easily replicated for trend analysis. Key dimensions include human capital, market capital, process capital, renewal capital, and financial capital. Design/methodology/approach – With longitudinal data...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to reflect on 21 years of IC theory and practice as input into discussing the origins of IC, its multiple perspectives and where it is heading. Design/methodology/approach – This article is based on the author's reflections of the past and vision for...
