Unlocking R&D potential: Navigate the new regime and grant opportunities

The R&D landscape is evolving - are you ready?

In August 2025, the Department of Industry, Science and Resources (AusIndustry) introduced a new R&D application form and updated their compliance procedures. Understanding the changes and how to prepare is critical to ensure your business continues to access the R&D Tax Incentive without disruption.

BDO invites you to an exclusive seminar at our Gold Coast office, designed to help innovative businesses navigate the changes of the R&D regime and uncover opportunities through government grants available now and in the future.

Event Agenda:

Join us for a networking business lunch and hear from BDO’s National Leader, R&D and Government Incentives, Nicola Purser share practical insights on:

  • The new compliance form, what the changes mean and how to start preparing ahead of the April 2026 lodgement deadline
  • Key changes, risks, and how to stay compliant in the new regime
  • Current and upcoming grants and funding opportunities
  • Maximising value and safeguarding your R&D claims in a shifting environment.

Who should attend?

  • CFOs
  • Financial Controllers
  • Heads of R&D or innovation
  • Business leaders across all industries seeking to leverage government incentives and funding to fuel organisational growth.

We hope you can make it, and if you’d like to find out more, view our recent updates on the new regulatory measures and the R&D application form,
