Tekcapital Announces Strategic Partnership with Blick Rothenberg
and Cleveland
- Partnership designed to help companies benefit from Patent Box
tax law -
- Upcoming seminar will explain the importance of the 'Patent
Box' -
Tekcapital plc (AIM: TEK), an international provider of
technology and IP services, is pleased to announce a new strategic
partnership with Blick Rothenberg, a leading independent firm of
London chartered accountants, and Cleveland, a firm of intellectual
property experts. Tekcapital is entering into this partnership to
provide a solution to help U.K. companies benefit from the Patent
Box tax law ("Patent Box").
The Patent Box came into effect on 1 April 2013 and is a tax
relief which enables companies to apply a lower rate of corporation
tax on profits earned from patented inventions. The United Kingdom
joined eight other countries with its adoption of the Patent Box
law and this move has increased interest in IP given the potential
for companies to benefit from increased innovation and profits.
Tekcapital, along with partners Blick Rothenberg and Cleveland,
aim to capitalise on the immediate and significant opportunity to
provide a comprehensive turnkey solution to help U.K. corporates
benefit from Patent Box law.
Under the strategic partnership agreement, Tekcapital will
assist its clients by enabling them to effectively source and
acquire relevant external patent rights to enhance and accelerate
their innovative capacity, Blick Rothenberg will support their
clients in analysing the profits arising from patent rights which
will benefit from the lower taxes and Cleveland will help clients
in determining the applicability of patents to product/service
lines.
To launch the partnership, Tekcapital, Blick Rothenberg and
Cleveland will host a Breakfast Seminar to discuss the importance
of the Patent Box to the UK economy.
The seminar will focus on the following:
-- the importance of the Patent Box to corporate growth and the UK economy;
-- how companies can qualify for relief; and
-- how this partnership can help companies quantify the benefit to their businesses.
The event, which is supported by the London Stock Exchange, will
be held at 8.45am on Tuesday 29 April 2014 at Blick Rotherberg, 16
Great Queen Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2B 5AH. Those wishing
to attend should contact seminar@blickrothenberg.com
