    What is the California Competes Tax Credit (CCTC)?

    The California Competes Tax Credit (CCTC) is a state-sponsored income tax credit that incentivizes business establishment, retention, and growth in California, offering over $180 million in tax credits for fiscal year 2023-2024 through three application periods. This program evaluates applicants on 14 criteria, including job creation, investment scale, and strategic regional impact. Whether you’re a startup or an established player, the CCTC can provide the financial boost needed to propel your business forward.

    What are the application periods for the California Competes Tax Credit (CCTC)?

    Businesses interested in the CCTC must apply during one of the three application periods each year. For the fiscal year 2023-2024, the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) is set to open the application window for the California Competes Tax Credit on these dates:


    • First Round: July 24, 2023, to August 14, 2023, with $164 million in tax credits and an additional $120 million in grants available. This initial phase offers a substantial funding pool to kickstart the fiscal year's applications.

    What are the evaluation factors for the California Competes Tax Credit (CCTC)?
