however HMRC\u2019s definition is broad and includes investment into IT systems, data, cloud computing, mathematics (a new addition), and more. The range of businesses carrying out qualifying activity is ever expanding. Various events over the past few years, notably the pandemic and Brexit, have meant companies have had to step up their innovation to overcome restrictions.<\/p><p>If you\u2019re building a startup or developing processes and products to meet a demand in an evolving market, it\u2019s likely that you\u2019ll qualify for research &amp; development (R&amp;D) tax credits. R&amp;D tax credits can be claimed for up to two years prior to the date of your claim. This gives you some time to get your business organised and make sure that all qualifying activities and costs are captured.<\/p><p>Our trusted specialists help you maximise your claim by identifying
