Grow Digital

Grow Digital, an initiative by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Enterprise Singapore (ESG) under the SMEs Go Digital programme, offers SMEs digital solutions to expand their businesses through e-commerce platforms, both locally and overseas. By leveraging this initiative and other digitalisation efforts in Singapore, SMEs can participate in Business-to-Business (B2B) and Business-to-Consumer (B2C) e-commerce platforms to sell overseas without a need for physical presence.

SMEs who are willing and ready to seize business opportunities in overseas markets can tap on Grow Digital to access digital solutions and get a head start in going global to stay competitive in Singapore's digitalisation drive.

Through these platforms, SMEs can benefit from:

• Smart matching to connect SME suppliers with potential overseas clients.
• Optimised listings on overseas e-marketplaces.
• Prompt access to financing offers facilitated via the platforms.
• Cross-border e-payment facilities that alleviate currency risks.
• Strong partners network such as with logistics companies to facilitate last mile delivery.
• Training and support to build competencies for cross-border e-commerce.
