Funding and Innovation support for the Aerospace and Defence sector

We can support your company throughout the entire lifecycle of an Innovation project, from IP Management and Grant Funding, to R&D Tax Relief and Patent Box.

Architecture & Building Industry Tax Relief

Many architecture firms undertake qualifying R&D activity on a daily basis but fail to take advantage of R&D Tax Relief.

Automotive & Logistics Industry Tax Relief

Opportunity for R&D tax relief in the automotive and logistics sectors has increased thanks to significant technological changes over the last few years.

Apparel & Textile Industry Tax Relief

The technical textiles sector has seen some of Britain’s most interesting innovations in the international arena and it is extremely important for it to be encouraged and rewarded through R&D tax incentives.

Electrical & Electronics Industry Tax Relief

Research and development is a key area for electronics companies. However, due to the nature of the sector, finding the eligibility for R&D tax incentives essential for funding future projects can be ambiguous. ABGI UK has helped secure substantial sums of R&D tax credit claims for many electronics clients.

Engineering Funding and Innovation Support

We help engineering and machining companies find the right innovation funding and incentive solution for their business.

Innovation Funding for FinTech Companies

We support fintech businesses throughout the entire innovation lifecycle, helping them identify qualifying activity, prepare robust claims and defend them if HMRC raises questions.

Food, Drink & Agriculture Funding and Innovation Support

We help food, drink and agriculture businesses fund innovation and reduce operating costs, from R&D tax relief and grants to energy cost reliefs and capital allowances.

Funding and Innovation support for the HealthTech sector

We support HealthTech businesses throughout the innovation lifecycle, helping them access grant funding, R&D Tax Relief, Patent Box and IP support from early research through to commercialisation.

Life Sciences Industry Tax Relief

ABGI UK works with a host of biotechnology, life science, scientific services and consultancy companies, recovering substantial sums that can be used to fund future research and development projects.

Innovation funding support for manufacturing businesses

Manufacturing companies have access to a range of funding and tax incentives to support innovation, from early-stage development through to commercialisation. A joined-up approach often works best.

Oil & Gas Industry Tax Relief

If you are a company where you have people and costs associated with project activities aimed at advancing what you do, then you could be eligible for funding in the form of grants, tax incentives or commercial funding.

Pharmaceutical & Chemical Industry Tax Relief

Pharmaceutical and Chemical companies are some of the traditional R&D companies, advancing science and technology on a regular basis. Did you realise that those issues you’re dealing with in the pilot plant relating to raw material variability, or unexpected results when scaling up formulations, could all be eligible for R&D tax incentives and innovation funding?

Software & IT Industry Tax Relief

Software and IT companies are engaged in constant efforts to improve their products. In order to drive business growth and meet the expectations of increasingly demanding customers they must take risks, experiment and innovate or face inevitable stagnation in a brutally competitive industry. In other words, they must carry out R&D. Many companies are benefiting from R&D tax relief on their software development expenses.

Waste & Recycling Industry Tax Relief

Waste management is an area of continuing innovation, particularly in response to an overall drive toward resource efficiency, and likely to be eligible for significant funding to accelerate future innovation and business growth.
