A common misconception around  R&D is that it’s just for people who work in white coats or with test tubes carrying out scientific research.  Our Tax Partner, Tim Lwin will dispel this myth as in fact, any company can claim for the tax relief if they are carrying out activities which seek to resolve technological or scientific advancements or uncertainties within their business.

Tim has a 100% success rate with submitted claims and works with businesses across all sectors, from Energy to Dairy and everything in between.  He will outline what it takes to make a successful claim, discuss examples of how you can identify if your client should submit a claim and talk through examples of what kind of activities could be successful.

There will be opportunity to ask questions following the presentation and we will be serving a light breakfast with plenty of coffee.

We know that you will find it useful and we will be delighted to see you there.

It will be on Wednesday 26^th October, 8.00am to 9.30am in the Delamere room at our Northwich office.
