<p><strong>What are the attractive tax incentives?</strong></p>

<p>Every year, more than 1000 new clinical trials commence in Australia by pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies.</p>

<p>Commercial sponsors take advantage of competitive clinical trial costs in Queensland. <a href="https://www.ato.gov.au/businesses-and-organisations/income-deductions-an... more about research and development tax incentives</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Research and Development Tax Incentive program</strong></p>

<p>Eligible companies can take advantage of the Research and Development (R&amp;D) Tax Incentive program with a cash refund of up to 43.5% on qualifying*&nbsp;R&amp;D expenditure.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Tax Incentive program provides targeted R&amp;D tax offsets to encourage more companies to engage in research in Australia. The R&amp;D tax incentive&nbsp;has two core components.</p>

<ol>
<li>Companies with an annual turnover of $20 million or less</li>
<li>Companies with an annual turnover of $20 million or more</li>
</ol>

<p>Unlike similar programs in other countries, there is no requirement for companies in Australia to demonstrate year-on-year growth in their R&amp;D expenditure to claim a tax benefit.</p>

<p>It’s also not a requirement for the intellectual property from eligible R&amp;D projects to be held in Australia. <u><a href="https://www.ato.gov.au/Business/Research-and-development-tax-incentive/"... more about the program.</a></u></p>

<p>*Clinical research activities qualify as core R&amp;D and are experimental activities: the outcomes cannot be known or determined in advance on the basis of current knowledge, information or experience. Outcomes can only be determined by applying a systematic progression of work that is based on principles of established science, proceeds from hypothesis to experiment, observation and evaluation, and leads to logical conclusions. The core activity is conducted for the purpose of generating new knowledge (including new knowledge in the form of new or improved materials, products, devices, processes or services).</p>
