R&D in Accommodation

Industry Spotlight

How might an accommodation company benefit from R&D tax relief?

Accommodation plays a vital role in supporting research and development (R&D) activities across various fields. From providing dedicated research facilities to fostering collaboration and innovation, accommodation serves as a crucial component in creating an environment conducive to scientific exploration and discovery.
Whether it's housing research laboratories, facilitating collaboration spaces or providing residential facilities for researchers, the accommodation has a significant impact on the success of R&D initiatives.

Some examples of projects and activities that could qualify for research and development tax relief include:

Accommodation can be used to house dedicated research facilities such as 

  • Laboratories
  • Testing centres
  • Specialized equipment.

These facilities provide a controlled environment for conducting experiments, analysis and data collection.

Accommodation can facilitate collaboration and knowledge sharing among researchers and teams. 

Shared workspaces, meeting rooms, and breakout areas encourage brainstorming, idea exchange and cross-disciplinary collaboration.

Accommodations can serve as innovation hubs where researchers, scientists and entrepreneurs come together to work on cutting-edge projects. 

These hubs foster a collaborative ecosystem that promotes creativity, innovation and the exchange of ideas.

Accommodation can include dedicated spaces for conducting workshops, training sessions and seminars. 

These spaces facilitate hands-on learning, skills development and knowledge transfer among researchers and industry professionals.

Accommodation can provide residential spaces for researchers, especially those involved in long-term or intensive research projects.

On-site or nearby accommodations ensure convenient access to research facilities and foster a focused and productive research environment.

Accommodation can house incubation centres that support start ups and early-stage ventures in their R&D endeavours. 

These centres provide mentoring, resources and infrastructure to nurture innovation and facilitate the development of new products and technologies.

Accommodation can be used to establish field research stations in remote or specific locations relevant to the research area.

 These stations serve as base camps for fieldwork, data collection and observation, allowing researchers to study real-world scenarios.

Accommodation can house data centres and server rooms that support R&D activities. 

These facilities provide secure storage, processing power and networking infrastructure to manage and analyse large volumes of research data.

Accommodation can host simulation and modelling facilities that enable researchers to simulate complex scenarios, conduct virtual experiments and model theoretical concepts.

These facilities support data-driven decision-making and hypothesis testing.

Accommodation can be transformed into living laboratories where researchers can study human behaviour, social dynamics and environmental impacts. 

These spaces provide real-world settings for conducting experiments and collecting data in a controlled manner.
