Belgium lags behind: SMEs benefit from an average 13.5% tax deduction on research activities, and large companies from 11.3%, compared to 30% in France, 25% in Germany, and 32% in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\">Audit pressure undermining business confidence<\/h4>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Beyond the level of support, the way incentives are implemented is creating friction. One in three companies applying the withholding tax exemption for researchers has recently been subject to a tax audit. These audits, often based on unclear administrative rules, generate uncertainty that discourages investment, even when the companies under scrutiny ultimately win their cases.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ml-2 border-l-4 border-border-300\/10 pl-4 text-text-300\">\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7] colour-dark-blue paragraph-large\"><em><strong>&#8220;As long as clarity is lacking, support for R&amp;D and investment is as much a risk as an opportunity,&#8221;&#8221;<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7] paragraph-small\">Fabien Mathieu, Managing Director Ayming Belgium<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\">A challenge that goes beyond Belgium<\/h4>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">In a context of fragmented value chains and rising protectionism, the article also calls for renewed European ambition. With the US and China using innovation as a geopolitical lever, Europe must build a long-term industrial vision, particularly around energy policy.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1858\"
