The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) and recent IRS guidance have reshaped how businesses capture and claim expenses under Section 174, restoring immediate expensing and opening the door to new opportunities. Many companies, particularly government contractors, mistakenly believe they can’t claim the R&D credit when projects are government-funded, but that isn’t the case. In this session, EPSA USA will break down what truly qualifies as R&D, clear up common misconceptions, and share strategies to maximize incentives while ensuring compliance. Attendees will leave with practical, actionable insights to improve cash flow and plan effectively for 2025 and beyond.

Learning Objectives
• Gain a clear understanding of how the OBBBA impacts the R&D credit and Section 174 deductions
• Identify what qualifies as R&D across industries and learn how to properly claim credits on government-funded projects
