What Do I Have to Do to Get PERTES? 

For companies and organizations wishing to participate in PERTES and obtain funding, it is essential to follow certain key steps. First, it is crucial to establish an internal innovation department.  

This team should be dedicated to the identification and development of innovative projects, as well as to the search for funding opportunities. In the absence of an internal department, it is highly advisable to work with financing consultancies such as SOCOTEC. These consultancies are responsible for detecting opportunities for grants and subsidies, identifying the most appropriate calls for proposals for each project. In addition, they manage all the necessary procedures, from the preparation and submission to the follow-up of grant applications, ensuring that all requirements are met.  

SOCOTEC helps to optimize the tax burden through the management of tax deductions, allowing companies to effectively reduce taxes.
