We are delighted to announce the launch of The EIIS Innovation Fund.
The EIIS Innovation Fund will allow investors to invest in Irish companies with excellent management teams and future growth potential while availing of up to 40% income tax relief.
With experience in operating EIIS/BES investments since 2005, The EIIS Innovation Fund will be managed by Quintas Wealth Management Limited (QWM) and advised by Quintas Capital Limited and Quintas Partners. The fund will be led by Quintas Capital Director, Kevin Canning.

What is EIIS?
The Employment and Investment Incentive Scheme (EIIS) is a tax relief incentive scheme, previously the Business Expansion Scheme (BES) which provides income tax relief of up to 40% to individual investors for investments in small and medium-sized companies throughout Ireland.
The scheme offers one of the few remaining income tax reliefs and provides total income tax relief including:
- Salaries
- Rental income
- Employee share options

EIIS Fund
An EIIS Fund is a professionally managed suite of EIIS investments. Investors benefit from spreading the risk of their EIIS investment across a number of companies as opposed to a direct investment in one company while still availing of income tax relief.

EIIS Webinar
We believe there is a lack of awareness and understanding of the EIIS scheme within Ireland. We would like to see the scheme used to its full potential and we are on a mission to ensure that both investors and companies benefit.
If you are a financial broker, investor or company looking to learn more about EIIS and our fund, we are holding a 30 minute lunchtime Zoom webinar on Friday 4th November at 1pm.
