Description

AeroSpace Cornwall supports businesses to develop products, services and technologies which can be sold into the aerospace and space supply chain(s). One of the key performance indicators of the AeroSpace Cornwall programme is the level of R&D tax credits being claimed by businesses.

This is encouraged, although in some cases, this may mean that AeroSpace Cornwall grants are not the most appropriate solution for the business. All AeroSpace Cornwall grant recipients will be invited to receive an overview of R&D Tax Credits and the potential related financial consequences of an R&D grant application.

There is a requirement for an appropriately qualified expert to transfer knowledge of the financial aspects associated with R&D activity to support businesses in helping them make an appropriate decision about the most appropriate funding route(s).
