COLUMBUS, Ohio - s4story -- Kary Oberbrunner, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and entrepreneur has been selected as a featured speaker at the 2026 Annual Tax Strategy Conference hosted by WealthAbility, one of the premier events for those seeking advanced wealth-building strategies.

Oberbrunner's presentation will explore a growing reality facing organizations worldwide: intellectual property is no longer merely a legal issue. In the age of AI, it has become a critical business asset, enterprise value driver, and competitive advantage.

As AI accelerates the creation and distribution of ideas, many organizations are discovering that their most valuable assets never appear on a traditional balance sheet. Proprietary frameworks, systems, content, software, research, and institutional knowledge often represent significant value yet remain unidentified, unprotected, and underleveraged.

"Most companies know how to track physical and financial assets," said Oberbrunner. "Far fewer know how to identify, protect, and leverage intellectual property. Yet intellectual property is often the very thing that differentiates a company, increases valuation, attracts investment, and drives long-term growth."

Oberbrunner is founder and CEO of Instant IP, a technology platform helping creators, entrepreneurs, innovators, and organizations establish verifiable records of intellectual property ownership through blockchain-backed documentation, timestamping, and evidence preservation. He is also co-author, alongside intellectual property attorney Katie Rubino of Wiggin and Dana LLP, of the bestselling book You Are an IP Company, which demonstrates how IP has become one of the most valuable yet overlooked drivers of enterprise value in today's economy.

The WealthAbility Annual Tax Strategy Conference was created by Tom Wheelwright, CPA, founder of WealthAbility, author of Tax-Free Wealth, and longtime tax advisor to Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad.

The session will take the form of a live interview between Wheelwright and Oberbrunner exploring the intersection of intellectual property, artificial intelligence, business valuation, and wealth creation. Together, they will examine why IP is increasingly becoming one of the most valuable and least understood assets in modern business.

As demand for expertise at the intersection of intellectual property, AI, and business growth continues to rise, Oberbrunner has become a sought-after speaker for conferences, professional associations, entrepreneur organizations, and leadership events focused on innovation, enterprise value, and the future of business.

"Tax strategy helps businesses keep more of what they earn," said Oberbrunner. "Intellectual property helps businesses create more value in the first place. The organizations that thrive in the future will understand both. Every company is an IP company, whether they realize it or not."
