Frontier Firms' Secret Sauce - Investing in Intangibles

Highly productive companies are often referred to as ‘frontier firms’ and set themselves apart from their competitors by not only investing in cutting-edge technology but also by placing strategic bets on complementary intangibles like research and development, intellectual property, and the capabilities of their workforce.

Studies indicate that frontier firms allocate as much as 3x the amount of resources to intangibles compared to their lesser-performing counterparts because they recognize that the multifaceted nature of exemplary productivity extends beyond technological advancements alone.

By having such a long-term perspective and coupling it with a clear vision these companies understand that the returns on their investments are often incremental, but over time, they compound rapidly, leading to the generation of significant long-term value. This ethos not only drives their own business, but has the knock-on effect that each partnership they enter, or customer they work with, also benefits.
