How is this useful? The company sells into the government and has the following income from government. This provides an indication of the sources of their revenue. This is unlikely to be a complete picture of their income from government sources since many councils and countries do not disclose this information or do so inconsistently. For example UK central government has a £ 25,000 transaction threshold which means it is possible for significant spend to not be disclosed. Where there are multiple transactions in a month, we consolidate daily transactions to provide an aggregate value for the month - the description will apply to the first transaction and the total may not reflect all spend on the description.

Outgoings

Business Rates/Property Tax

No properties were found where OCTOPUS (UK) LIMITED is liable for the business rates / property tax. This could be for a number of reasons.

The council hasnt published the data
We havent found or been able to process the councils data
The company is part of a group of companies and another company in the group is liable for business rates
The registered office may be a residential address which does not have a commercial designation. If the business is run from home then it won't be a commercial property and hence won't be liable for business rates.
Serviced offices are increasingly popular and therefore a business may not be paying business rates directly - the building owner is and this is incorporated in the office rental charge.

Government Grants / Awards

Technology Strategy Board Awards

The Technology Strategy Board has not awarded OCTOPUS (UK) LIMITED any grants or awards. Grants from the TSB are an indicator that the company is investing in new technologies or IPR

European Union CORDIS Awards

The European Union has not awarded OCTOPUS (UK) LIMITED any grants or awards.
