Measure, manage and grow your intangible assets
The Opagio Growth Platform gives executive teams and investors the data and insights they need to identify, value and optimise the intangible assets driving company growth.
The intangible asset challenge
Over 90% of enterprise value in the modern economy is driven by intangible assets, yet most businesses cannot identify, measure, or value them. Traditional accounting frameworks capture only a fraction of the intangible investments that drive growth.
Without visibility into these assets, executive teams make investment decisions in the dark, and investors struggle to justify valuations or assess growth potential.
The intangible assets driving your growth
Opagio uses the CHS growth accounting framework to classify intangible investments into six actionable categories. For formal valuations and transactions, Opagio also maps each category to its IFRS 3 / ASC 805 accounting equivalent.
Technology
Software, platforms, proprietary systems, and R&D investments that power your products and operations.
IFRS 3: Technology-Based
Brand & Marketing
Brand equity, marketing capabilities, customer relationships, and market positioning that drive demand.
IFRS 3: Marketing-Related, Customer-Related
Intellectual Property
Patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and other legally protected knowledge assets.
IFRS 3: Technology-Based, Contract-Based
Design
Product design, UX design, service design, and architectural design that differentiate your offerings.
IFRS 3: Artistic-Related
Human Capital
Workforce skills, training investment, talent development, and the knowledge embedded in your team.

From data to growth decisions
Productivity growth analysis
Using your historic financial data, we identify firm productivity trends and reveal the relationship between your intangible investments and business performance over time.
Intangibles identification & valuation
We discover and value the intangible assets driving your growth — including the unmeasured intangibles that traditional accounting frameworks miss entirely.
Growth forecasting
Based on your intangible asset position and investment trajectory, we project growth into future years — giving you a data-driven roadmap for strategic planning.
Intangibles investment tracking
Monitor investments in intangible assets over time and measure their direct impact on productivity, enabling smarter capital allocation decisions.
Valuation justification
Use intangibles data to build a compelling, evidence-based narrative that supports your valuation for future funding rounds or exits.
Portfolio oversight
For investors: leverage intangibles tracking across your portfolio to see how companies deploy funds and identify where to focus value-creation support.
What accounting standards miss
Traditional accounting frameworks (IAS 38, FRS 102) only recognise acquired intangible assets. Internally generated assets — often the most valuable — are invisible on the balance sheet. Opagio’s dual-framework approach makes them measurable.
