International IT
and Life Science enterprises are extremely welcome in the province
of Utrecht, and are encouraged to establish themselves here
in many ways. Companies have access to various kinds of industry
support and financial incentives in the way of subsidies, tax
incentives, and more. Here are just a few examples in the Research
& Development field that can be particularly attractive
to foreign investors:
Research and Development Promotion
Act (WBSO)
Promotes corporate R&D by means of a generous reduction
of payroll tax and social security contributions for R&D
wage costs
Innovation
Subsidy for Collaborative Projects (IS)
A subsidy for R&D projects that are executed together
with one or more knowledge institutes and/or companies. National
and international partnerships are eligible for a subsidy.
These financial incentives for Research
& Development are available to all companies that meet
the necessary requirements, not just those in the IT or Life
Science sectors.
Please feel free to contact us for
more detailed information.
