IT, technology & start‑ups

For an IT or software company, most of the value lies in intangible assets, intellectual property and continuous development. The hardest accounting tasks therefore concern not traditional assets but research and development (R&D) spending, capitalising software and handling international licence fees. This calls for a financial partner that understands how a technology company works.

We keep up to date with the tax allowances linked to software development, the handling of intellectual property (IP) rights and the international VAT rules for digital services. We handle multi-currency invoicing, daily exchange-rate differences and services to foreign clients – often subject to reverse charge – accurately and in line with international rules.

Start-ups & venture capital

Fast-growing (scale-up) companies and start-ups preparing to raise capital run their finances very differently from a traditional SME. Investors (venture-capital funds, angel investors) expect reporting to international standards, the burn rate has to be monitored continuously and business plans updated regularly – all of which requires a reliable financial back office.
