Abstract
The Internet of Things is based on technologies that transform inanimate objects, equipped with sensors that collect and exchange data. It so consists of a set of connected devices. The connectivity between objects, the network-web (as a virtual exchange platform) and the intangibles, represents a driver of value creation, through product and process innovation. The consequences of these epochal changes in the functionalities and potential of the IoT pose critical legal questions concerning liability, privacy, and security. This positively affects valuation, improving economic and financial margins, and reducing discount risk factors. IoT fuels big data and improves the valuation contents of the information.
