|
alliantgroup, LP
Specializes in US federal and state R&D tax credits and incentives,
typically for companies with over 100 employees up to hundreds of millions
of dollars in revenues. The savings often range from several hundred
thousand to millions of dollars which can be obtained within a few months.
Many executives may not yet realize the very large cost
savings which can be achieved now through these research and development tax
credits. The eligibility criteria have changed so that more types of
costs qualify, and the tax savings can be both retroactive and carry
forward.

Explanation of this section
There are thousands of professional service providers worldwide who do work
related to direct investment projects, although many just serve clients in
local areas or regions. Websites for major service providers can be
found quickly and easily through the
selective
contact lists by specialty or
regional contacts
which we maintain for the convenience of executives and advisors who use
this website.
We also provide GUIDE Service Profiles and Biographic
Profiles (see the links from company names and contacts below) to share
additional knowledge and contacts about some organizations. This
background should make it easier for
executives to find such specialists and recognize why their service capabilities may be worth
consideration for an investment project. Note that
regional contact lists
as well as local Area Profiles may
also
highlight regional or local service providers. |
What is our GUIDE service?
GUIDE (Globally Uniform Investment Data & Experience) involves a variety of
small services to organize and present timely knowledge about business
locations and professional service providers in a globally consistent way.
This supports our own referral work, which reflects more market knowledge
than we can openly publish, as we independently reach executives and
advisors to support their project interests.
It
also makes such knowledge conveniently available for executives and
advisors. This summary of GUIDE Service Profiles will grow as more service providers
choose to actively participate so that we can maintain timely knowledge about their
capabilities, and highlight what differentiates their services to deliver
high value for investors. We maintain many
professional contacts other than the ones highlighted here. |
|
Our independent research and referral work for executives
is free because we are supported by leading professionals who can deliver
valuable services to more executives than they might reach through their own
professional networking, events, and marketing efforts.
|
Our goal is to make it easier for executives and their
advisors to develop investment plans and ROI faster and better. We
organize and share knowledge, experience, and contacts in a globally
consistent way through this website and many personal working relationships.
This is a personal service to executives and advisors - not just website
content and links. |
| The presence, absence,
or position of any organization on these lists,
or their position on the lists, does not imply any endorsement or opinion about their services,
nor by them about our own.
Please contact us directly for relevant introductions or any
additional contacts, market knowledge, and research which we don't publish. |
The selections are simply intended to be helpful to executives who may be
unaware of such contacts, or how to reach their websites quickly.
We welcome suggestions of other organizations and websites which may be
helpful to investors, but this is intended to remain a selective list since
there are many such organizations. |
