Innovation Taxes

Back to Our Services

Our Innovation Taxes team helps companies access Research & Development (R&D) Tax Incentives, as well as other tax incentives for innovative and creative businesses, including Patent Box Relief and Video Games Tax Relief.

R&D Tax Incentives

The UK’s R&D Tax Incentive schemes are designed to encourage private sector investment in innovation. However, complexities in the schemes can make navigating the claims process challenging.

Our team has extensive experience in assisting clients ranging from early-stage tech start-ups to multinational, publicly listed corporations across a range of sectors.

Patent Box Relief

Patent Box Relief offers companies a valuable opportunity to reduce their Corporation Tax rate to an effective 10% on profits generated from qualifying intellectual property, compared to the standard 25% rate.

While the regime is complex, our expert team are on hand to support at every stage - from assessing eligibility and preparing claims, to offering strategic tax planning and IP advice. With our help, businesses can maximise tax savings and align Patent Box benefits with broader commercial goals.

Video Games Tax Relief

For years, Video Games Tax Relief (VGTR) has been a cornerstone for the UK video games sector - driving growth, attracting investment, and supporting job creation across the industry.

With countries such as France, Germany and Ireland offering more generous tax incentives, the UK Government responded by reforming VGTR in 2023 to maintain competitiveness.

Our specialist Games Tax team can help you navigate the complexities and ensure that your studio is claiming the correct relief during the sunset period for VGTR, which runs to 31 March 2027.
