According to AI TIMES, the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and the National Tax Service on October 11 fully launched linked growth support for 2,559 AI small and medium-sized companies and startups, combining business support and tax relief. Based on the list of companies identified and supported by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups through 20 projects this year, the National Tax Service determines the recipients of tax relief and connects follow-up support. The core of the program is a structure in which tax burden relief is added alongside stage-by-stage support for growth, from technology development and commercialization to financing, startup, and overseas expansion. It provides liquidity support such as minimizing tax audits, prioritizing procedures related to tax credits and exemptions, and extending payment deadlines or making refund payments earlier. It is designed so that early-stage companies can focus more on research and development and entering the market by reducing the burden of investigations. The significance of this collaboration was presented as having laid the groundwork for receiving policy support and tax relief together without having to search for each individual system separately.

Perspective

This move is meaningful in that it creates a flow in which selection for support programs leads directly to linked tax relief. Companies can respond to the entire growth process as one package rather than separately easing funding and administrative burdens, and the policy effects are also likely to be felt more quickly on the ground. In the end, it is being read as a phase in which the way support is connected becomes more competitive than the breadth of support itself.
