Structure for the next round, not just this one

Tax and structuring for biotech, biopharma, technology and other innovative companies.

How it often looks

A funding round, an Innovation Box claim, or a first international hire can each quietly shape — or block — the exit that comes years later.

Novera supports biotech, biopharma and other innovative companies on the tax side of growth: entering the Netherlands, investment rounds, the Innovation Box, and exit. The structure has to work for the company and for its founders and shareholders. Our focus is primarily on Life sciences & health, with other innovative companies alongside it, like tech, software, clean tech and deeptech.

Typical moments

  • An investment round, when the rights of new and existing shareholders need to be set.
  • The company turning a profit: that is the moment to put the Innovation Box in place, not afterwards.
  • Setting up an employee equity or participation plan.
  • A transfer of IP.
  • An exit, or an intended sale.
