The Queensland XR Hub is excited to be partnering with Intellect Labs to bring you workshops on all things related to tax incentives and grant funding for R&D and innovation.

To kick off this series, we invite you to join Shaun van Dijk, Principal at Intellect Labs, for a deep dive into the Australian Government’s Research and Development (R&D) Tax Incentive. Designed for companies of all sizes, the goal of this program is to fund innovation and R&D activities that might not otherwise be possible.

So, what does this mean for you and your business?

In this workshop, Shaun will explain:

Key features of the R&D Tax Incentive
Available benefits and how to apply
What types of activities qualify?
What costs can be claimed?
Documentation and other compliance issues to be aware of
Other funding sources for R&D focused start-ups

With a combined 25+ years’ experience in R&D tax, grant strategy, collaboration management and intellectual property, Intellect Labs’ purpose is to help Australian science and technology businesses innovate, grow and solve the world’s greatest challenges.

When: Thursday 17 October 2024, 3-4pm
Where: The Precinct, Fortitude Valley / Online

After the session, join us for an XR Hub community meetup!
Come along to network, chat, and get to know your fellow members.
From 4pm at The Sound Garden, Fortitude Valley
