The Canadian government has set four essential requirements for applicants: Either be incorporated nationally/provincially or be a sole proprietor residing in Canada.
Must be a privately-owned business aiming for profit.
Have no more than 499 full-time employees.
Earned between $500,000 and $100 million in at least one of the last three tax years.

The Canadian government will cover up to 90% of qualifying costs, with a maximum of $15,000. After CJ Technologies finalizes your digital adoption plan, you can submit the necessary invoices to claim your grant payment.

If you have already been through a digital adoption plan under any of these programs in the past year, you won't qualify for the $15,000 Boost Your Business Technology Grant:

But there's a silver lining! You might be eligible for the Fast-Track route, allowing you to apply for a $100,000 interest-free loan from BDC to further your digital transformation. Standard program criteria apply.

You'll collaborate with a top expert from our Toronto-based team, skilled in web development and digital solutions. They'll be your main contact, ensuring a tailored plan that aligns with your business needs.

Once you receive approval for funding, the federal government requires your digital adoption plan and associated invoices within nine months. However, with CJ Technologies' expertise, we typically expedite this process, aiming to finalize your technology strategy within just a few weeks after our partnership begins.

Unfortunately, no. The Boost Your Business Technology grant evaluates your digital readiness and identifies areas for enhancing your competitive edge through digital strategies. The grant covers expenses related to the formulation of your digital adoption strategy, which includes:

Consultation costs, fees, and other charges linked to developing your digital adoption strategy.
Relevant federal and provincial taxes tied to the consultation fees.

With CJ Technologies, we ensure you get the most out of this grant for your digital transformation journey.
