Participant perspective

What participants should come away with

The aim is not only to explain the framework, but to help participants connect the parts they often understand separately and use them more confidently in practice.

“This is the course that finally connects the pieces you have always wanted to bring together: brand strength, legal protection and financial value.”
Former participant in the online program
“The strongest part was that the program did not stay theoretical. It gave me a structured way to think, calculate and discuss brand valuation in practice.”
Former participant in the certification path
“It felt rigorous without becoming abstract. The course gave me a clearer language for discussing brand value across marketing, finance and legal teams.”

Why this program

A structured path into serious brand valuation

Brand valuation matters in transactions, disputes, strategy, planning, capital allocation and brand-led decision-making.

Yet many professionals still lack a structured way to connect brand strength, legal protection and financial assumptions in a disciplined valuation process.

This program is designed to close that gap by moving step by step through the legal, behavioral and financial logic behind a defendable valuation.

Analysis
Legal

Understand what legal rights are being valued, how ownership and protection are assessed, and how legal strength affects both valuation credibility and risk.

Analysis
Behavioral

Learn how brand strength, stakeholder evidence and brand contribution are assessed, and how behavioral analysis connects marketing logic to monetary value.

Analysis
Financial

Work with cash flows, royalty logic, discount rates, useful life, growth and tax to turn analysis into a defendable value conclusion.

Learning outcomes

What participants will learn

Participants should leave with a clearer professional grasp of how standards, analysis, method choice and applied case work fit together in a serious valuation process.

Structure a valuation according to ISO 10668 and ISO 20671

Understand how the standards frame monetary brand valuation, brand evaluation, method discipline, reporting and the relationship between legal, behavioral and financial analysis.

Assess brand strength and brand contribution

Learn how stakeholder evidence, brand strength and market position can be translated into valuation logic, risk discussion and method choice.

Evaluate legal rights and legal risk

Assess ownership, scope of protection, enforceability, agreements and legal vulnerabilities as part of a serious valuation process.

Build and challenge the financial logic

Work through cash flows, royalty assumptions, discount rates, WACC, tax, growth and useful life as core drivers of a valuation build.

Compare methods and choose the right one

Compare royalty relief with income split, price and volume premium, margin cash flow and other relevant approaches to understand when a method is fit for purpose.

Work through applied valuation cases

Move from theory to practice through case work, interpretation, review of assumptions and the preparation of a more complete valuation output.

Present and defend a valuation professionally
