Scientific-based Practitioner magazine:
It is a scientific-based journal yet practice-oriented, and we welcome both practical and scientific articles. Despite its methodological approach, EBVM is a journal for practitioners. Accordingly, all contributions should be of direct benefit to the reader by presenting innovations, pointing out possible effects, recommending concrete actions and providing implementation guides. The needs of the target group are also taken into account in the selection of topics, the preparation of documents and their length.

The editorial board welcomes submissions on a wide range of subjects of interest to the business & intangible asset valuation community. In general the articles should have a fundamental European focus, but country specific aspects and developments are also of interest.
