Shred is a Vancouver-based financing and professional services firm with a dynamic and growing consultancy practice. The team helps Canadian companies fund their innovation by recovering millions each year through SR&ED;, provincial R&D; tax credits, and non-dilutive government funding programs. Our clients range from early-stage startups to established SMEs across the widest range of industries.

Our work sits at the intersection of tax technical depth, financial rigour, and genuine client partnership. Through our non-tax advisory practice, we sit meaningfully in the operations of our clients and lean on our wide range of industry partners and collaborators to help solve strategic and financial problems with our clients. the federal expenditure limit has been substantially expanded, capital expenditures are back in scope, and eligibility has widened. We are not licensed practitioners and collaborate with external accounting firms for all clients on all tax matters.
