Innovation is a key driver to a company’s growth in products and services. Today’s multinational companies conduct research and development activities (“R&D”) both here in the U.S. and in other countries closer to customer markets. As you engage in this business, you may ask yourself some of the following questions:

  • What are the advantages of carrying out R&D in the U.S. or in other countries?
  • What tax incentives and regimes can benefit companies engaged in innovation?
  • What strategies can multinational companies follow in determining the best location for holding intellectual property?
