Vectrix

What Vectrix does

Vectrix BV is a Netherlands-based professional services firm specializing in Dutch R&D fiscal incentives for technology-active companies. Founded in 1997 (continuous operation cited at 28+ years) and headquartered at Science Park 400 in Amsterdam, the firm positions itself as a specialist in two interlocking Dutch fiscal schemes: the WBSO (Wet Bevordering Speur- en Ontwikkelingswerk) R&D subsidy, which provides tax credits for qualifying software, product, and technology development activities; and the Innovatiebox, which reduces corporate tax to 9% on profits derived from innovation assets linked to WBSO-approved activity. The firm also operates a Venture Capital advisory practice providing financial insights and support for international growth across Europe, the US, and Asia, alongside an adjacent accountancy/tax practice.

The business is not a technology product company; its core 'technology' is accumulated regulatory and procedural expertise in the Dutch R&D fiscal regime. Service lines include hands-on WBSO application preparation, Innovatiebox structuring, VC deal advisory, and a free Subsidie- en financieringsscan diagnostic tool used as a top-of-funnel lead qualification mechanism. The firm reports a 97% success rate on WBSO submissions across 200+ annual applications and operates on a 'no cure, no pay' commercial basis, aligning fees with successful application outcomes.

Customer targets are verticalized: Dutch-based software and technology companies, AI companies, and deep tech firms in food, bio, and med tech sectors. Named customers in source material include The Valley, Eurofins, Textkernel, Foleon, Kepler, and TSMC, indicating a mix of mid-market and large enterprise clients. Distribution is exclusively direct (advisory and inside sales via online intake), with content marketing through webinars, knowledge sessions, and a newsletter feeding the funnel. The firm is privately held with no disclosed parent or external investor backing.
