What are the benefits for my company?
The positive impact of the Canadian Digital Adoption Program (CDAP Stream 2) grant on your business can be significant when its funds are used effectively.
The opportunities offered by the federal CADP Stream 2 grant are vast, covering a variety of needs essential to your company’s development and growth. Whether you are considering technology research initiatives, developing a growth strategy, implementing an innovative product strategy, developing web or mobile applications, optimizing or creating a website, setting up reservation systems, analyzing data, integrating a customer relationship manager, or implementing software-as-a-service (SAAS) and platform recommendations, the CDAP grant can provide crucial financial support.
It is also worth noting that, following completion of your audit, you will have the opportunity to access an optional loan of up to $100,000 from the BDC (Business Development Bank of Canada). This amount can be used flexibly to meet your company’s specific needs, whether to invest in key projects, explore new opportunities or strengthen your operational capabilities.
