Research allowance for cap-on

May 1, 2024
By developing our LiOT platform for equipment-as-a-service, including the risk model for asset financing, cap-on was able to qualify for a research allowance.

Research and development promote innovation and progress and are therefore important drivers of economic growth.

The Federal Ministry of Education and Research has therefore introduced a research allowance for research and development projects to support SMEs in particular. The aim of the Research Allowance Act is to strengthen the innovative capacity and thus the competitiveness of the German economy.

By developing our LiOT platform for equipment-as-a-service, including the risk model for asset financing, cap-on was able to qualify for such a research allowance.

This milestone once again shows the relevance of our business model and encourages us to move forward!
