Frequently Asked
Questions

EDG is the short form for Enterprise Development Grant. This grant was announced in the Annual Budget 2018. In short, EDG is a grant for established local SMEs (Small Medium Enterprises) to help them grow and transform their businesses.

You can get funding up to 70%.

EDG's 70% support level was to end on 31st March 2023.

This is dependent on the scope of the project. The grant is correlated to the size of the company in terms of turnover and manpower.

The projects can fall under these scope:
  1. Core Capabilities a) Strategic Brand and Marketing Development b) Business Strategy Development c) Human Capital Development d) Service Excellence e) Financial Management
  2. Innovation and Productivity a) Process Redesign b) Product Development c) Automation
  3. Market Access a) Overseas Marketing Presence (OMP) b) Market Access c) Pilot Project and Test Bedding d) Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A)

To be eligible, you are required to
  1. Have a registered company and operating in Singapore
  2. Have at least 30% local shareholding
  3. Be in a financially viable position to start and complete the project.

Startups are not eligible for EDG. If you are a startup, you can look at the ecosystem meant for startups: Startup SG network.

From 1 January 2017, if you engage consultants, they need to be certified management consultants. SMEs should ensure that consultants involved in EDG must possess Enterprise Singapore-recognised certification; failing which Enterprise Singapore reserves the right not to support the consultancy fees incurred.

Yes! Our consultants from Corsiva Lab are recognised by Enterprise Singapore

You need the following:
  • Your project proposal
  • Latest ACRA search results
  • Past 3 years audited financial statements (including latest year)
  • Our consultant's proposal and
  • Our consultant's certifications.

There is no fixed timeline. As Enterprise Singapore is running a lean team to handle EDG, it may take 1 to 2 months.

In general, no. It is best to obtain an official letter of offer from Enterprise Singapore before commencing the project. You should not have already begun on the project before your application has been approved. Neither should you have made payment to service providers or suppliers involved in the project.

In theory, there are no restrictions on how many EDG Grants you can apply for. Currently, ESG allows you to apply and work on more than one EDG project at any given time. However, you can only apply for an EDG grant in a specified area once. This means that if you are awarded an EDG grant for Branding and Marketing once, you are no longer eligible for another EDG grant under the same category that is Branding and Marketing. However, you can still apply for EDG grants under other areas.

You may apply for EDG at Singapore Business Grants Portal.
