Gabriel Laroche-Johnston, Senior Taxation – R&D and Innovation (SR&ED) Manager, was not originally trained as a tax professional, but rather as an engineer. He specializes in the technical aspect of taxation to help businesses secure financial assistance for innovation in the form of tax credits.

He appreciates the nature of his work, his team and the corporate culture at Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton. Since SMEs must submit technical reports to the Canada Revenue Agency every year, Gabriel interviews the client organization’s scientific researchers and summarizes his findings in a technical report.

This support is invaluable for many entrepreneurs including Francis Villiard, Co-founder and Client Experience Manager at Merinio, an employee scheduling and management software provider. The financial assistance programs are generous, but complicated.

The experts at Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton have extensive knowledge and speak the same language as their clients. Francis knows that he’s in good hands with the Firm’s team and is impressed by their follow-ups throughout the year. They truly are a tremendous help.
