AN OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE YOUR SMALL BUSINESS A DIGITAL BOOST

About The Canadian Digital Adoption Program

AIDING SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED BUSINESSES EXCEL IN THE DIGITAL REALM

With the emergence of new digital technologies and the ever-evolving technological sphere, business and marketing landscapes have completely been altered. Hence, the chances of survival for businesses that fail to adapt to this digital transformation are very slim. In order to assist small businesses that are lagging behind in terms of their digital strategy due to a lack of funding, the Government of Canada has announced the Canada Digital Adoption Program (CDAP) worth $4 billion as part of the 2021 federal budget. Through this digital transformation grant, the government seeks to provide about 160,000 SMEs a much-needed boost to accelerate in the current digital economy.
