I work on New Zealand R&D funding, principally the RDTI. I used to assess these applications. I helped write the official digital technology guidelines.

I approached Gregor at Neumayr Ltd with a vague sense that RDTI might be worth a look, and he opened up opportunities I hadn’t realised were on the table. He sat down with me, took the time to really understand the business and our expenses, and came back with a clear view of what to claim. From there he handled the lot: the application text, the General Approval, the filing, and a tidy checklist for our accountant to close things off. What I appreciated most was how patient he was. Every question got a proper answer, and he kept me in the loop the whole way through. If RDTI has been sitting in your too-hard pile, Gregor is genuinely the person you want in your corner.
I help with General Approval applications and the work around them — eligibility, the activity description, drafts, RFIs, reviews, and education. Businesses, accountants, and other advisors.
About Gregor Neumayr
I assessed over 1,000 RDTI applications worth hundreds of millions as an R&D Specialist at Callaghan Innovation and co-authored the official digital technology sector guidelines. As part of the small expert team that assessed more than $7 billion in R&D for the scheme, I saw exactly what assessors look for — and why even strong projects still get RFIs.
Before that I spent almost two decades as a practising R&D scientist and engineer — planning and running projects in AI systems, patented medical-device algorithms, cancer diagnostics, genomics, and industrial innovation. That combination lets me quickly spot genuine scientific and technological uncertainty and build claims that work.
Neumayr Ltd is an independent practice in this field. I work with businesses, accountants and other advisors. The work takes the form the situation requires — applications, reviews, education. I charge for the work, not the outcome. I will say when an application is not worth making.
