Why tech companies need a specialist accountant
Raising finance
Ambitious ideas are a great start for any tech company, but to transform those ideas into reality, you need to raise the necessary finance. We can assist with company formation and help you plan the funding required to deliver your product or service.
Our dedicated accountants work closely with you to identify sources of finance, including potential investors and Government grants available to the technology sector. We also provide guidance on schemes such as the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) and Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS), which can reduce tax liabilities and attract investment.
Specialist financial management and accounting services
Effective financial management is crucial for the success of any tech business. This includes budgeting, cash flow forecasting, and preparing monthly management accounts to give you clear business insights and support informed decision making.
We help you manage your financial transactions efficiently, using cloud-based software tailored to your business needs, enabling you to focus on growth opportunities while we take care of your accounting system.
Our tax advisory services focus on reducing tax liabilities and ensuring compliance with your tax obligations, including corporation tax and VAT returns, so you can avoid unnecessary tax bills.
Business strategy and growth opportunities
While it can be easy to get caught up in day-to-day operations, looking ahead to the future of your technology business is essential for sustained growth.
Our team helps you devise a robust business strategy, mapping out milestones and ambitions, and providing financial forecasting and modelling to support your growth plans.
We assist in identifying opportunities for expansion, delivering your product or service to a wider audience, and positioning your company as a leader in the tech sector.
Research and development tax relief
Innovation is highly encouraged in the UK, and the Government offers R&D tax reliefs to support tech businesses reclaiming development costs.
Our team specialises in helping tech companies navigate the complexities of R&D tax credits, ensuring you maximise your claims and benefit from available tax reliefs.
