What's your next move?

Four common starting points. Choose one to see where the conversation usually begins.

Invest in capacity

Don’t fund growth from cash alone.

Expanding capacity, innovating and upskilling your team can be co-funded through Portugal 2030 and the PRR. We start by identifying which open calls fit your project.

Programmes
  • Productive innovation
  • Skills and qualification
  • PRR
  • Other open calls
Each programme has its own calls, rules and deadlines. We confirm fit before making any promises. Discuss my investment
R&D credit estimator

What could your R&D give back?

Adjust the sliders or choose a profile. A simplified version of the SIFIDE II rates gives you an order of magnitude before we talk.

€1.2M
Eligible costs include R&D staff, equipment, contracted research and patents.
€800k
The incremental rate applies to growth above this average.
Your illustrative SIFIDE II credit

tax credit on €1.2M of R&D

Base rate (32.5%)€390,000
Incremental (50% of growth)€200,000
Request a detailed estimate

Simplified illustration based on the Portuguese Tax Benefits Code. The incremental component is capped at €1.5M per year. The actual credit depends on which costs qualify, project certification and your corporate income tax liability; unused credit may be carried forward. This is not an eligibility assessment.

We build, too

Consultants who ship software.

Sixteen years of applications showed us exactly where the friction lies. We now turn that knowledge into software, and we are clear about where each product stands.
