SMEs are eligible for up to 50% Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) support for the adoption of DM Business Thrust Digital Marketing Packages, a Pre-Approved Solution under the IMDA SMEs Go Digital programme.
In order to position Singapore as a global leader in technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship, the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) was established as part of the country’s economic transformation plan. The PSG grant’s main objective is to help companies and organisations use technological equipment and solutions to enhance their operations.
Small- to medium-sized businesses (SMEs) from a variety of industries, including food, engineering, logistics, retail, and eCommerce, are covered by sector-specific solutions to promote the adoption of IT solutions, tools, and consulting services.
(Up to 50% Support)
The PSG grant will now be expanded to cover digital marketing solutions from October 2021. Its objective is to help companies develop their digital marketing strategy, including the creation of content, running digital marketing campaigns, establishing an online customer base, and attracting more customers to their premises.
Businesses can use the support to obtain additional support for developing an online presence, which is crucial as the Covid-19 pandemic hastens to move to a digital-first world.
The applicant needs to be a local SME in order to be eligible for up to 50% financial support.
