In the UK, patenting technology in your product allows to reduce corporate tax from 25% to 10% (a few conditions, but simplifying for the cast). I was to say TIL, but I forgot more than once. Cool, we've been doing it, and spreading the information if someone is interested. Yet, why such an incentive? I find it very odd, perhaps why I can never remember.

Several casts also wonder why. Perhaps to foster innovation. But there is also the iUK program, and other grant systems. Also, patents do not necessarily mean innovation in market (reaching real people). And why 25 down to 10; unclear (that sounds a lot) ? Lucky we got qualified over the years on many of these mechanisms. Still asking why to smart people here, as I’d be glad to understand and be ready next times.
