Established in Brazil since 2009, G.A.C. Group helps companies improve their performance through services and innovation tools.
"Lei do Bem" The Brazilian Research Tax Credit

In Brazil, companies benefit from the "Lei do Bem", a tax incentive similar to the French CIR, which allows investments in innovation to be deducted up to 34 % from corporate income tax and the social contribution on net profit. However, unlike the CIR, it is not limited to radical innovation, since any investment aimed at progressively improving a process, product or service is potentially eligible for the Lei do Bem.

At the same time, Brazil offers other sources of support for innovation, giving companies access to advantageous credit lines to carry out their research and development projects.

These include Finep, the equivalent of France's BPI, which plans to release 40 billion R$ (around 7 billion euros) for technology and innovation by 2026, including 7 billion R$ (around 1.2 billion euros) in 2023, and BNDES, in partnership with Embrapii, which has allocated 145 million R$ (around 26.6 million euros) to support Brazilian industrial innovation.

G.A.C. Group's headquarters in Brazil offers a range of tailor-made products, with the aim of improving our customers' performance through innovative services and tools. 

From innovation diagnostics to open innovation, we work with our customers to align the organization with their innovation objectives.
