Leaders of technology companies – particularly those in the startup phase or strapped for cash – have a lot to mentally juggle in their day-to-day operations. However, one area of the business they should pay attention to are the state and federal credits available to them. Tax credits for technology companies may save money and time, creating opportunity to manage and optimize their business more effectively.
