WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY...

“Champion’s work on our R&D Tax Relief application made the whole thing simple for us. We had an initial technical interview, and following that, all I was required to do was review their wording and within a few months we found out our claim was successful, which was amazing.

“It’s made us realise what else we can claim for and reconsider our in-house development costs, for example, there are differences in what you can claim based on whether a worker is employed or self-employed. Knowing this has made us consider employing a developer rather than outsourcing this function, which will improve the way we work and create other efficiencies.”

Jason Howarth, Managing Director at Veya

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY...

“We had never heard of R&D Tax Relief before; Champion were recommended to us and we weren’t disappointed. After the initial meeting it was a very easy process, Champion ran with it and there wasn’t much for us to do.

“The tax benefit that we’ve claimed back through R&D will allow the money to be reinvested into the company to make further developments. As it’s a continuing process we now make decisions with our customers leveraging R&D.”

Nigel Williams, Director at MQI Limited
