Government Incentives | InCorp Global

InCorp Global can help you traverse this complicated landscape and take advantage of the financial assistance that these programs have to offer.

The Australian Government offers several grants that can give innovative small and medium-sized businesses the critical cash funding they need to move forward. The three main grants are:

R&D Tax Incentive	Export Market Development Grant	Early Stage Innovation Company (ESIC)
Cash rebates to encourage research and development activities The R&D Tax Incentive is one of the most lucrative government incentives globally — regardless of your business size. Offered by the Australian Taxation Office and AusIndustry, it provides a generous offset to encourage research and development activities that can benefit the Australian economy. For companies with a turnover under $20 million, it can deliver a cash benefit of up to 43.5 cents in the dollar. For those with a turnover more than $20 million, the benefit is still significant however reflected as a reduction in income tax payable	Reimbursement on promotion-related expenses of exports Through the Export Market Development Grant, the Australian Government offers up to a 50% reimbursement on promotion-related expenses of exports—be they products, services, or even simply intellectual property.	Concessional tax treatment for investors in innovative, high-growth start-ups The Early Stage Innovation Company (ESIC) tax incentive provides concessional tax treatment for investors in innovative, high-growth start-ups As part of this initiative, as of 1 July 2016, if a taxpayer invests in a qualifying ESIC, then they may be eligible for tax incentives. These tax incentives include: Non-refundable carry forward tax offset of 20% paid for qualifying investments (limited to $200,000 for the investor and affiliates collated per income year) Modified capital gains tax (CGT) treatment that disregards capital gains on qualifying shares held for at least 1 year and <10 years
