The program highlights several advantages for businesses, such as accessing expert advice (covering up to 90% of the cost of hiring a digital advisor), increasing competitiveness through digital maturity, and benefiting from a 12-month capital postponement to acquire new technology while preserving cash flow.
Additionally, the CDAP features frequently asked questions addressing various aspects of the program, including eligibility criteria, loan terms and amounts, application processes for different streams (Grow Your Business Online and Boost Your Business Technology), and inquiries about the BDC zero-interest loan.
Businesses can subscribe to stay informed about CDAP updates and receive tips and tools for entrepreneurs through the program's website. The program is a collaboration between ISED and the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), with BDC's Advisory Services team serving as an approved partner in the CDAP network to assist businesses in digitizing and achieving their strategic goals.
