Research objective: The aim of this research is to measure the impact of firm capabilities    of innovation (Licenses, Intellectual Property, Copyrights, and R&D) on firm value.
Research methodology: This research uses a sample of Communication and Information Technologies (CIT) firms in Egypt stock exchange and CIT firms in London Stock Exchange. Innovation as an independent variable is measured using licenses, copyrights, intellectual property, and R&D and firm value as a dependent variable is measured by Tobin's Q.
Research results: Firm value is correlated positively with license, intellectual property, and R&D at a significant acceptable level. However, this impact is greater in UK than in Egypt. On contrast, the impact of copyrights on firm value in UK is less than in Egypt.
The impact of firm capabilities of innovation as a whole (License, Intellectual Property, Copyrights, and R&D) on the firm's value on London Stock Exchange is higher than the impact on the Egyptian Stock Exchange. This result supports the capability-based theory, which argues the importance of investing in intangible assets.
Originality and value: This research contributes to directing the attention of managers to the importance of developing innovation capabilities to ensure the highest firm value.
