In Sweden, there are specific tax incentives for research and development (R&D), such as a reduction in employer contributions for companies with R&D activities. CoS can coordinate the identification and documentation of R&D projects to ensure that the organization meets the Tax Agency’s requirements and can benefit from these deductions. This means clearly defining which projects are R&D, documenting costs and results, and ensuring that the projects are aligned with the organization’s strategy. CoS should collaborate with the finance department and external advisors to maximize the benefits of the tax incentives. By linking R&D investments to tax deductions, CoS can free up resources for further innovation and strengthen the organization’s long-term competitiveness.
