General Concepts
• Malta Enterprise supports Industrial Research and Experimental Development projects.
• The aid intensity depends on the type of R&D activity and the size of the enterprise.
• Aid is project based, thus it is limited to the scope and duration of the project.
• All R&D aid should be pre-approved (Applicants should have their project approved before they commencing work on the project)

Loan of Highly Qualified Personnel
The scheme is intended to support SMEs that plan to carry out an industrial research and experimental development project by helping them increase their capabilities to innovate through the temporary attachment of qualified personnel.
• The aid is provided in the form of a cash grants financing up to 50% of the wages paid to seconded personnel or the fees charged by the large undertaking from where the personnel was seconded.
• The maximum grant is of €15,000 per annum.
• The secondment must cover a period shorter than 36 months.

Loan of Highly Qualified Personnel
An agreement must exist between the SME receiving the seconded personnel and the research organisation or large enterprise specifying the terms and conditions of the loan or secondment.
Highly qualified personnel are researchers, engineers, and designers with a tertiary education degree and at least five years of relevant professional experience.
The seconded personnel:• must be employed in a newly created function within the SME.
• must have been employed for at least two years in the research organisation or the large enterprise, which is sending the personnel on secondment.
• must work on R&D&I projects within the SME receiving the aid

Technical feasibility studies
Research & Development projects are associated with high risk, hence enterprises may undertake a technical feasibility studies to determine that the key elements of the proposed research project are based on sound principals.
This scheme provides part financing of wage costs and other cost incurred for attaining the required technical knowledge in the preparation of a technical feasibility study.
Technical feasibility studies leading to:

Industrial Research
Experimental Development
SMEs 75% 50%
Large 65% 40%

Patent Registration Tax Credits
SME registering intellectual property (obtaining and validating patents rights) in relation to knowledge gained through Industrial Research and Experimental Development projects are eligible for a tax credit covering (between 35 and 60%) of :• Costs preceding the grant of the right incurred for:
– the preparation, filing and prosecution of the application of the right in the first legal jurisdiction
– renewing the application before the right has been granted
