The event highlighted central funding programs at federal level and showed how companies can receive targeted support for innovation projects.
No other industrial sector uses the research allowance as intensively as the mechanical and plant engineering industry. A new VDMA position paper shows ways in which the subsidy can be further optimized.
The effort involved in applying? Feasible! Do you have any questions? Then take advantage of our monthly online introduction and Q&A session on tax-incentivized research funding.
The majority of German machinery and equipment manufacturing research is conducted in Germany. Companies are keeping their research budgets high. However, there are threatening dependencies in key technologies.
In our theme publication you will find facts and figures on research and development, innovations and patents in machinery and equipment manufacturing.
Whether research tax allowance, IGF or project funding - national programs support companies in turning ideas into innovations, reducing risks, strengthening cooperation and putting knowledge into practice.
Description
Tax incentives for research offer small and medium-sized companies in particular incentives to invest in research and development.
The new research allowance is becoming increasingly popular in the mechanical engineering sector. The Federal Ministry of Finance has now issued an important statement regarding the application deadlines for previous years.
The Forschungskuratorium Maschinenbau e.V. (FKM) bundles and coordinates pre-competitive research for mechanical and plant engineering.
VDMA bundles its activities in the area of "Research and Innovation" and establishes a new joint office. Research and innovation processes can thus be further optimized. Dr. Eric Maiser and Martin Nitsche take over from Dietmar Goericke.
Research secures value creation and jobs in Germany and Europe. Politicians must create innovation-friendly framework conditions. Openness to technology is essential.
A complete success: The mechanical engineering sector is the frontrunner in the use of the state research allowance. The funding instrument strengthens Germany's competitiveness as a business location.
At the end of February, the Federal Ministry of Finance finally published a first draft bill for a research allowance law.
