Kris Gale quoted in today's Australian Financial Review

Pretty much as the title says, Kris was quoted in today's AFR, page 8. Here it is:

The managing director of Michael Johnson Associates, Kris Gale, supported the proposed changes to the IP requirements but did not believe the new rate of concession was enough.

"For companies making decisions about where to park their R&D, the [proposed changes] are probably not worth enough to drive behaviour...for a few companies who are on the cusp of a decision, this change could tip them over the line. But I don't think it's internationally competitive enough," he said.

As our team has been discussing the report, there is definitely a very long way to go before there is sufficient certainty on the proposals and the government's reaction.

Above is a word cloud from our blog (thanks, Jack)
