What does R&D funding entail?
Governments around the world have schemes in place to help fund innovative projects or research and development (R&D). These R&D funding incentives are proven to help stimulate the economy, jobs, and skills creation. The UK is no different with several schemes available to companies engaged in innovative projects in Britain, including the SME scheme, the RDEC scheme, and the merged scheme introduced for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 April 2024.
We speak to companies every single day who don’t believe the R&D funding schemes apply to them. In reality, the definition of what qualifies for R&D tax credits covers a much broader range of activities than you might think, and it’s very likely that some of your projects will qualify too. UK R&D tax incentives aren’t just for scientists in white lab coats. They’re designed to apply to all industries and sectors. Some of our most innovative clients are construction companies, shoe manufacturers, and software developers. If your work involves overcoming scientific or technological uncertainty, there’s a strong chance it qualifies for R&D tax relief.
