How we can help

Discover the strategic partnerships services we offer to member organisations.

R&D tax credits

R&D tax relief is a key incentive for member organisations to fund innovation. Ayming identifies eligible projects, prepares robust claims, and ensures compliance with HMRC. By partnering with us, members can unlock additional funding for R&D, optimise budgets, and reinforce their commitment to driving innovation and organisational growth.

Global funding network

Non-dilutive funding can be transformative for businesses of all sizes, yet navigating everchanging competitions is complex. Ayming guides applications for UK, EU, and North American funding, leveraging our global network to connect members with strategic partners and programmes. Our support accelerates innovation, secures vital investment, and strengthens member impact across sectors.

Patent Box

Patent Box offers substantial tax savings for members with qualifying IP. Ayming assesses members' intellectual property portfolios, aligns claims with eligible R&D, and ensures full compliance. By doing so, we optimise ROI, enhance innovation value, and help members reinvest savings into strategic projects that drive long-term growth.

HMRC enquiry defence

Member organisations face scrutiny when claiming for R&D. Ayming provides expert HMRC Enquiry defence, handling technical questions, documentation, and communications. Our support mitigates risk, protects financial claims, and ensures compliance, enabling members to focus on innovation and core operations without disruption from regulatory challenges.

Educational webinars, talks, and events

Ayming offers targeted webinars, talks, and events for member organisations, delivering practical guidance on funding, tax incentives, and best practices. These sessions equip teams with the knowledge to optimise claims, secure grants, and stay informed on sector developments, while fostering collaboration, continuous learning, and innovation across your membership.
