Tech Industry in Georgia Pushes for Cybersecurity, Tax Breaks
Thursday, January 22nd, 2015
A trade association for Georgia’s growing high-technology industry is seeking the extension of existing tax breaks and new ones during this legislative session, as well as a review of ways to exploit the commercial cybersecurity market.
Members of the Technology Association of Georgia laid out the wish list Wednesday at the Capitol. It includes the renewal of the so-called angel-investor tax credit set to expire this year, designed to entice investment in start-up companies. The last tax year figures are available for show just $775,000 in credits used.
