Global Incentives: R&D, Technology, Entrepreneurs & Emerging CompaniesR&D/Government Incentives: I love what I do. R&D, Entrepreneurs and Astropreneurs are the future. Many businesses have a misconception that Government grants and funding only applies to large corporates, white coats and those with million dollar research budgets. This is complete codswallop. Incentives can be used by a variety of companies in different industries.Globally, companies are facing increased competition from a resurgent China and other countries with more lucrative incentives or less red tape. ‘Local’ Government incentives can level the playing field.From my experience, R&D focused companies are generally the ‘hotbed’ of new ideas and creativity; thus their activities will foster an innovative culture and as a nation we will benefit from their activities. Let’s face it; this is especially important given the current competitive environment as one can only compete with high value, low value innovations.I love helping businesses and entrepreneurs find ways to maximise their bottom line and take on the world.
