Client Testimonial

“My R&D claim process with the Walmer team was simple and straightforward. They were able to liaise with my accountant in terms of the financial process and were able to build a detailed technical report on the basis of the information I provided them in a simple document. Thanks to the team, I utilized the funds to complete the installation of equipment at the factory and hired an additional consultant for sales, marketing & social media. I came across the right people at the right time!”
