Salary benchmarks
Our take
The UK government is keen for eligible companies to take advantage of the generous R&D tax reliefs on offer. But this can be a complex and confusing area, with over half of eligible businesses unaware of the opportunity. In response, EmpowerRD is attempting to change the way R&D tax credit claims are done.
The company focuses on developing technologies that simplify and automate the application process as much as possible, allowing accounting and financial managers to claim with confidence. The company’s broader ambition is to support companies across the world to unlock all funding that rewards innovation - making it one to keep an eye on moving forward.
