Huntingdonshire District Council (HDC) is launching a new grant scheme available for the district’s businesses, providing £2,000 to aid with the digitisation of each successful business.

To apply for the District Council’s Digital Business Grant scheme, businesses will be invited to attend a Digitisation Workshop that HDC is organising and running alongside three partner organisations. Attendance as one of the workshops is a mandatory first step in applying for a digital business grant and will provide a platform for local businesses to make the most effective use of the grant that they receive.

The adoption and utilisation of digital technologies has become increasingly important to the ongoing growth of businesses.  Whether you wish to improve efficiencies and performance, increase your customer reach or implement a new digital communications strategy, then this scheme is designed to support the growth of your business.

Workshops are scheduled for Tuesday 23 November 2021; Tuesday 25 January 2022 and Tuesday 22 February 2022.  Upon completion of the workshop, attendees will be invited to apply for a grant.
