As a venture in full expansion, a tax strategy can make or break your company. Not only do you need to abide by the law and regulations, you can also benefit from optimizing your tax structure: apply for R&D or other incentives, look for alternative remuneration packages for your (first) employees, etc.
PwC Next Level offers you an integrated offering: after an intake meeting to get to know your company’s needs, we make a suggestion of the most effective steps to take and to build a sustainable tax strategy together.
Grants & incentives are often an important source of money for startups and scale-ups when they are developing their product, technology or business. Local, national and European authorities steer certain entrepreneurial behavior by offering incentives to organizations. Our team of experts know what type of grants you qualify for and will help you create and submit your application. Make sure you don’t miss out on any opportunity to fund your growth ambitions!
In Europe, there’s a strong tendency towards stimulating innovation to drive progress and remain competitive.
For start-ups and scale-ups, however, the cost of R&D can be onerous with an immense cash burn rate. We work with you to define and build out a sustainable innovation strategy. By identifying and leveraging tax credits, additional cash benefits can be realised in relation to your R&D initiatives.
As your organisation starts growing internationally there is a new spectrum of tax aspects to bear in mind. Not only to be compliant with regulations but also to keep your business healthy and avoid paying taxes on the same income twice.
For many startups it is important to bear in mind that, especially when you are active in more than one country, there can be a significant tax cost even if the business overall is not yet profitable.
Our experts work with you to (i) shape a sustainable and practically implementable setup which avoids double taxation, (ii) ensure local compliance obligations are met and (iii) facilitate local tax authority discussions where needed.
