Research is risky

Reduce the risk of innovation with SR&ED Tax Credit Program.

Since the process of innovating comes at a risk why not reduce that risk whenever possible? In Canada the Canada Revenue Agency's SR&ED (Scientific Research and Experimental Development) tax credit program lets you do just that.

Qualifying research lets you get money back on your investment if you have taken technological risk. Often this money is in the form of a cash refund that you can use immediately to fund further research.

Most companies are focussed on their core business operations; they are not full-time research organizations. This means that they may not have the in house expertise in dealing with the CRA and the SR&ED program.

Research is risky enough. Don't risk navigating the challenges of the CRA's processes alone. Trust the SR&ED tax consultants at Big Data Science to help you efficiently get the most from the SR&ED program, while minimizing risk.

Why Innovate?

Innovation fuels competitive advantage — and it can lead to patent protection.

Research and development often involve risk. Success is not guaranteed, and the investment may not always pay off.

But when it does, the rewards can be substantial. Being first to market with a breakthrough can secure a dominant position and open the door to patent protection.

Patents can be powerful business assets.

When Nortel sold its patent portfolio, it generated $4.5 billion USD.

Amazon held a patent on one-click purchasing from 1999 to 2017, allowing it to gain an edge in ecommerce and successfully challenge competitors like Barnes & Noble in court.

A well-protected invention can give you an advantage your competitors can’t easily replicate — or turn your research into revenue through licensing and royalties.
