The Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) Grant Program is a federal tax incentive program aimed to encourage Canadian firms of all sizes and sectors to do industrial R&D in the country.
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) administers the program, which provides SR&ED grant tax incentives in a timely, consistent, and predictable manner while encouraging businesses to prepare claims under Canadian tax laws and CRA policies and procedures. This government grant can help many firms working on advancing science and technology who are looking for a research grant to fund their project in Canada. Whether you are an IT firm, a food processing company, engineering company, your business may be eligible to apply for SR&ED.
