“We hadn’t heard of R&D Tax Credits until we were invited to a meeting with a motorsport client to discuss their R&D with Vantage. After the meeting, we asked whether we had qualifying activity and arranged a meeting of our own. It turned out we had a lot of qualifying activity, and Vantage were able to translate that into cash through the R&D Tax Credits scheme,” says Kevin Stephenson, Managing Director of Rev2Race.
Why Vantage?
“It’s easy… John has excellent insight and asked us all the right questions. We provided our financial data and spoke to John for a couple of hours. The result was £15K straight into our account for the first two claims. That’s the best hourly rate I’ve ever had! Working with John is so easy, and it saves me a fortune.”
The reward
“R&D Tax Credits have helped us financially. We’re reinvesting the money into next year’s development, which helps the company to grow. They’ve also changed the way we work. We’re more positive about trying new things and giving them a go, because we know that, realistically, it won’t cost us anything.”
