SUMMARY:QANTM Valuations - FAST30 Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:Amplifying Deal Value Through Intangible Assets\nA large portion of the value of most businesses is generated by technology\, data\, brands and other intangible assets. The bulk of these assets do not appear on balance sheets; and they are often poorly substantiated in information memorandums. Time and again we see businesses leaving intangible value on the table in fund-raising and exits. \nYou will learn\, in this 30-minute presentation: \n\nhow intangibles can be evaluated to identify upside potential\,\nhow the quality of intangible assets can be articulated and valued\, and\nhow defensible intangible evaluations achieve a value-premium.\n\nThis session will be particularly relevant to deal makers\, legal and IP professionals\, investors\, boards\, and rights-owners. For those interested\, there will be time for Q&A after the presentation. \nRegistration for this webinar is FREE. \nDate: Thursday\, 21 August 2025\nTime: 10:00 AM – 10:30 AM \nSpeakers: \nTim Heberden: Managing Principal – Valuations\, QANTM Valuations \nFor over 25 years\, Tim has specialised in valuing intangible assets and IP-rich enterprises. His valuations have informed M&A\, early-stage fund raising\, IPOs\, hostile bid defence; and – outside of deals – litigation\, financial reporting and tax. Tim is the author of the global guidance note on the Valuation of Intellectual Property Rights and he has been in the IAM 300 – The World’s Leading IP Strategists for over 10 years. His qualifications and experience enable him to integrate financial\, marketing and technical information into defensible and insightful valuations. Prior to joining QANTM Valuations\, Tim was a Partner at Deloitte. \nGerard Delaney: Managing Director\, QANTM IP \nGerard is the recipient of an EU scholarship to study in Japan having commenced his career at Mitsui & Co in Tokyo and Ericsson in Stockholm. His global experience spans Europe\, Asia and North America in executive roles at a range of tech-centric and IP businesses. Gerard has led significant value creation in several businesses resulting in fund-raising and significant exits. In both M&A and private equity deals\, he has worked closely with deal teams to assess the strategic relevance of intangible assets in pricing\, diligence and post-acquisition integration. In addition to his current role\, Gerard is also the Chair of Hive Steaming in Sweden and most recently was the CEO of a UK technology company.
