Canada Digital Adoption Program (CDAP)

Billions of dollars in funding are available in Canada

We help any business between $500k and $100 million revenue access funding, and scale the business digitally with an approved digital adoption plan. We are subsidized to do so as a registered digital advisor.
Need funding to pay back your CEBA by the Dec 31st 2023 deadline? We can help.

What is CDAP?

The Canada Digital Adoption Program (CDAP), by the Government of Canada, helps small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) adopt digital technologies to increase their competitiveness. Applications take only 30 minutes and you are automatically approved on the spot instantly. Eligible businesses will receive a grant for up to $15,000 to pay an approved digital advisor to help build their adoption plan, followed by a five year 0% interest loan of up to $100,0001 and a $7300 work place subsidy to implement the plan. We then show you how to access billions more in funding from the other programs available as your digital advisor.
