Games studios, university spinouts and research-park technology companies — plus the professional services firms that grew up around them.
GU1, GU2, GU3, GU4 and the surrounding Surrey towns.
Guildford has one of the strongest technology clusters outside London: a long-established video games industry, spinouts from the university and the Surrey Research Park, and satellite and communications engineering with real R&D behind it.
That means the accounting questions here look more like a London startup's than a market town's — R&D relief under the current, tighter regime, EMI schemes to keep engineers who could work anywhere, revenue recognition on games and licensed software, and investors who expect monthly reporting rather than an annual set of accounts.
We work with Surrey clients remotely and come down for onboarding, board meetings and anything that genuinely benefits from being in a room. Waterloo to Guildford is thirty-five minutes.
Everything runs in Xero, so the distance between us makes no difference to how current your books are.
Revenue recognition on launches, storefronts and licensing, plus R&D relief documented as the work happens rather than reconstructed afterwards.
