Knowledge Capital

There are many ways to denote knowledge as a factor in production and competition: intellectual capital, invisible capital, intangibles or the organisational knowledge base, just to name a few.

Knowledge capital is the sum total of the knowledge of all members in the organisation along with the company's capability to utilise this knowledge on all levels of its performance, value-added and information chains for sustainably satisfying the customer expectations.

That means that knowledge capital is preeminently value-added particles that fall through the holes of classical account rendering and bookkeeping rules, making them invisible – until now.

EIKV wants to demonstrate new ways to define identifying, capturing, documenting, analysing and promoting knowledge and values for targeting new assignments and devise a standardised auditing and certification system for corporate and human values (i.e., intangible assets) in companies and institutions on any scale.
