Digital For Business

Digital For Business

If your systems are more manual or disconnected than they should be, but you don’t have the time or expertise to work out what to change, this is for you.

Digital for Business is a state-backed programme, delivered through your Local Enterprise Office (LEO), that puts a qualified digital consultant into your business to help you fix it.

  • You’re matched with a qualified digital consultant.
  • They look at how your business currently operates — your systems, processes, and customer-facing tools — and identify where digital solutions could remove manual work, connect systems that don’t currently talk to each other, or improve the customer experience.
  • You get a written report with tailored recommendations on how to save money or time and improve productivity.

  • Micro, small, and medium-sized businesses (from sole trader to 50 employees) based in Ireland.
  • Trading for at least 6 months.
  • Turnover exceeds €30,000 and is under €10 million.

  • An experienced mentor working directly with your business.
  • Usually 2 – 6 half-day sessions, though this varies by LEO — some offer more, some fewer.
  • A personalised review of how your business currently operates
  • A written report with specific, actionable digital recommendations
  • A clear route to further funding — this consultancy is the required first step before applying for the Grow Digital Voucher.

Up to €250.

This varies depending on where in Ireland you are based.

The programme is heavily subsidised by the LEO. They cover the majority of the mentor’s fee, so you pay a small fraction of the real cost.

Your main investment is your time; Mainly in the initial conversation and giving the consultant a real look at how you currently work.

  • Most small businesses are losing hours every week to manual work that digital tools could remove entirely.
  • This gives you an expert’s eye on exactly where that’s happening in your business, with a funded route to actually fixing it once you know where to start.
  • Fewer orders lost or delayed, and a reduction of doing the same work twice.
  • It’s low-commitment (a handful of half-days) and low-risk (heavily subsidised).

If you’re in a micro, small, or medium-sized business and you know your systems or processes are clunkier or more manual than they need to be, but you don’t have the time or expertise to work out what to change, we can help.
