Digital Transformation Flexible Fund

With emerging technologies playing an increasingly important role in helping businesses to grow – can you afford to miss out?

The Digital Transformation Flexible Fund (DTFF) can offer eligible businesses, and social enterprises help to fund their digital transformation project.

Digital technology is transforming the way in which businesses operate, helping them to gain a competitive edge and achieve long-term success.

The DTFF grants are worth between £5,000 and £20,000 and are designed to help small and micro businesses accelerate their digital transformation ambitions.

If eligible, the grant can fund up to 70% of the cost of a project with 30% match funding from the applicant.

The DTFF programme is a competitive process where proposals are compared to each other to determine those that offer the biggest potential for business growth and digital transformation.
