​About Leyton:

​Leyton is an international consultancy specialising in innovation funding and business performance improvement. Established over 27 years ago, we help organisations across the UK identify and secure financial incentives that allow them to innovate, grow, and stay competitive.

​Our mission is to empower businesses to achieve more with their existing resources by uncovering opportunities within areas such as:

• ​R&D Tax Credits

• ​Patent Box

• ​Energy Exemptions

• ​Capital Allowances

• ​Business Rates

​By combining technical expertise, financial insight, and industry‑specific knowledge, Leyton’s consultants work closely with clients to ensure they receive the maximum benefit while staying fully compliant with HMRC and regulatory requirements. Ultimately, our goal is to make innovation pay off — enabling UK companies to reinvest in their people, new projects, and future growth.

​Leyton offers a unique opportunity to explore how your business can effectively leverage several different tax exemptions. Whether you’re aiming to streamline your R&D Tax Credit process or strengthen your compliance approach, this discussion will help ensure your procedures align with HMRC’s evolving guidelines and provide clarity on the available innovation funding schemes in the UK.

​Key Criteria:

• ​Size: Ideally 5 or more staff members in the UK.

• ​Stage: All stages are relevant

• ​HQ: UK-based headquarters preferred, but firms with a UK entity are also worth engaging.
