What does an innovative R&D tax specialist do?

An R&D tax specialist helps businesses identify qualifying research and development activity, understand the relevant R&D Tax Relief rules and prepare the technical and financial evidence needed to support a robust claim.

At randd, that expertise also helps us understand the wider innovation taking place within your business, so we can identify where other opportunities such as grant funding or Patent Box may be worth exploring.

Learn more in our guide on why you should use a R&D tax specialist.

What innovation incentives could be available to my business?

The right incentives depend on what your business is developing, where you are in the innovation lifecycle and how that innovation will be commercialised.

R&D Tax Relief can support qualifying research and development activity, grant funding may help finance future innovation projects, while Patent Box can reduce the Corporation Tax payable on qualifying profits from patented inventions.

Our specialists can help you understand the innovation funding options available to your business and when to consider them.

Can R&D Tax Relief, grant funding and Patent Box work together?

Potentially, yes. Different innovation incentives can support businesses at different stages, from funding an upcoming project to claiming R&D Tax Relief on qualifying activity and benefiting from patented innovation through Patent Box.

How the incentives interact depends on your circumstances, which is why it can be useful to consider them as part of a wider innovation strategy rather than in isolation.

How do I know which innovation incentives my business is eligible for?

Eligibility depends on your business, your projects and the type of innovative activity involved.

If you’re developing new or improved products, processes, software or technology, there may be opportunities worth exploring. By understanding both the work you’ve already undertaken and what you’re planning next, our specialists can help identify the incentives that could be relevant and explain the requirements involved.

You can learn more about R&D Tax Relief eligibility in our guide, R&D Tax Credits explained. If you’d like confirmation tailored to your business, you can also get in touch with one of our technical specialists.

Can randd help if I already make R&D Tax Relief claims?

Yes absolutely. If you’re already claiming R&D Tax Relief, there’s still value in looking at the bigger picture. We can review your existing claims, help strengthen future claims and explore whether grant funding, Patent Box or other innovation opportunities could support your plans.
