CEV Breakfast: How R&D Tax Credits Could Benefit Your Business

It is estimated that 80% of eligible companies in the U.S. are not taking advantage of the R&D Tax Credit. The purpose of the R&D Tax Credit is to encourage businesses to invest in research and development in the United States by reducing their federal and state taxes. Any S-Corporation, C-Corporation, organization, trust, estate or individual can take advantage of this benefit.

Whether you’re a non-profit, pre-revenue startup, or even a profitable corporation, this applies to you! Every business that is involved in developing or improving products or processes has the opportunity to claim R&D eligible expenses. These expenses could include, but are not limited to: salaries, subcontractors, and materials. Depending on where your business is located, you can claim this tax credit for the current year, PLUS the previous 3 years, which equates to approximately 5-10% of your R&D expenses! This is the 4th Colorado Emerging Ventures Building for Growth Breakfast in 2017. These workshops are no cost to attend thanks to generous sponsorship from Guaranty Bank and Trust Company. Colorado Emerging Ventures (CEV) programs are specifically developed to support businesses with high market potential and high growth goals - including bioscience, IT, aerospace, cleantech, advanced manufacturing, outdoor and natural products, and other key industries.
