Our purpose is to support businesses across West Yorkshire on their digital transformation journey to enable them to improve performance, productivity and competitiveness, reduce environmental impact, and ultimately achieve sustainable growth by investing in digital.
We can support your business and your new digital project, worth between £2,000 – £25,000, with our Digital Accelerator Grant, which can fund up to 50% of project costs to a maximum of £10,000.
The business will be expected to fund the balance of the project costs itself*
You will also have access to one of our specialist Digital Advisors who will be able to offer practical, impartial advice about your project and the right solution for your business. Alternatively, if you are already clear on exactly what you need, it may be possible to fast track your application.
*It is not possible to use more than one grant for the same project.
You will need to provide a substantive business case for the higher value grants and will be subject to a more rigorous procurement process but don’t worry, you’ll be supported by your dedicated Digital Advisor throughout the whole process.
