Fuel innovation and growth by using R&D tax credits for product and process improvements.
Created in 1981, the Research and Development Tax Credit was introduced to foster innovation and induce economic growth for businesses of all sizes.

However, this credit can be very beneficial, as it offers a dollar-for-dollar offset to federal income tax liability, or in some cases, payroll tax liability.
Due to the broad definition provided in the tax code of what is considered “Research and Development”, virtually any industry engaged in developing or improving products or processes could be eligible. This is especially true for industries such as, Life Science, Software & Technology, Engineering, Aerospace & Defense, Manufacturing and many more.
