Investments

When your company invests in growth, innovation or digitization, various tax benefits or subsidies allow you to recover part of your costs. Some distinct rules apply to expenditures related to R&D, energy-saving investments and digital investments.

However, you’ll first have to conquer the maze of accounting, tax and legal rules before you can take full advantage of any tax benefit.

Our team knows these rules like the back of their hands, so why not give us a call to help you out?

Revenue

When you think of profit, you inevitably think of the tax man claiming a large portion of those earnings.

However, companies that advance our economy with their innovations have an edge on other businesses. Your tax burden can be shrunk down significantly when your projects are not only future proof but also tax proof!

Easy enough you might think, but without an MIT degree in higher mathematics you’ll soon run into some problems. Feel free to ask our calculator to do the heavy lifting.
