Introduction
Welcome to Shooga, your trusted partner in digital transformation. In today’s dynamic business landscape, technology and innovation are fundamental to achieving success and growth. That’s why we’re here to assist you in navigating the Canada Digital Adoption Program (CDAP), a powerful initiative by the Government of Canada to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) adopt digital technologies and increase their competitiveness.
As an authorized CDAP digital advisor, we provide comprehensive support throughout your digital transformation journey, from prequalification to plan implementation. We are empowered to disburse the up to $15,000 grant from the CDAP, a critical financial boost that can set your business on the path to digital mastery.
Understanding the CDAP
The CDAP is designed to propel Canadian businesses into the digital future. It offers eligible businesses a two-tier financial aid: a grant of up to $15,000 to build a robust digital adoption plan and an optional 0% interest loan of up to $100,000, facilitated by the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC), to bring that plan to life.
Our role at Shooga is to guide you through the process, helping you build a tailored digital adoption plan, and supporting you in maximizing the benefits of the $15,000 grant.
