clients the competitive edge they need.

expanding beyond the capital.
OD and Venture Tax
OD offer a full service to their clients, but they are not
R&D tax specialists. Niall O’Driscoll, the founder of OD, knew that their
competitors were offering this service, so found himself in the market for a
white-label solution to complete their client offer. This is where the
expertise of Venture Tax comes in.
Niall met Venture Tax and was quickly convinced that they
would make great strategic partners due to their in-depth knowledge the R&D
tax system.
The clincher was the fact that Venture Tax are also
chartered accountants themselves. This means that Niall could trust the advice
he was receiving, and could be comfortable that Venture Tax are in it for the
right reasons themselves – to support businesses looking to create
opportunities through research and development.
This is a commercial relationship, too. For every successful
introduction, a commission is paid back to OD. Rather than banking these
payments, Niall uses the commission to support local and national charities.
Not only does this support his business ethos and values, it also means that
they don’t look at the relationship with Venture Tax as a profit-making exercise
– it is their purely to support their clients.
The relationship between the two businesses has now matured.
Niall says:
“I love the customised service that I get from the team at
Venture Tax. They are extremely reactive to enquiries, and I feel like they are
an extension of our own ethos. They offer the type of quality service that we
ourselves give.
“Venture Tax provide a holistic, end to end service. Their
relationship with the client is for the entire journey. It’s great for us to
support our clients with this expertise.”
