Abstract	European universities are immersed in an intensive transformation process to order to transform themselves into more autonomous and competitive organisations. Adapting to the new demands implies the introduction of management systems, traditionally used by firms, in order to govern universities according to criteria of efficiency and effectiveness. In recent years, the idea of managing and reporting on intangibles and Intellectual Capital in universities has been acquiring progressive importance in Europe. The Chapter provides a comparative analysis of the most significant European experiences in managing and reporting Intellectual Capital in higher education institutions addressing two main issues: the identification of the benefits and obstacles of implementing IC frameworks in these particular institutions and reflect on the necessary degree of standardisation of indicators to allow comparability. To this purpose, three types of initiatives are analysed: the case of Austrian universities, which are compelled by law to report annually on their IC; five initiatives developed by individual institutions on a voluntary basis, and an attempt to build a homogeneous IC framework for European universities.
