The Ministry of National Economy and Finance is introducing tax relief measures to encourage partnerships between larger companies and startups in the research and technology sector. The proposed changes aim to boost cooperation and innovation among businesses.
The draft bill includes tax exemptions for patents and incentives for investments in startups by venture capitalists and angel investors. It also provides financial tools to support small and medium-sized enterprises looking to merge.
The focus is on fostering research and technology products developed by startups. By involving larger companies and investors, the goal is to enhance market performance. This initiative aims to cultivate a dynamic ecosystem of innovative companies in Greece, benefiting the economy.
The bill will offer tax incentives for collaboration projects with startups and research centers, strengthen tax benefits for patents, and increase the investment limit for angel investors in Greek startups. Additionally, a new tax regime for venture capital firms investing in Greek companies will provide more security.
