The aim of the SME Consultancy Services Grant Scheme is to support enterprises through the provision of external consultancy services to analyse the potential of future investment and operational interventions. Back in November last year Business Doctors Malta were registered as service providers by the Measures and Support Division to provide business consultancy services under this scheme.

The e-Commerce Grant Scheme is aimed at encouraging and supporting enterprises to increase their competitiveness by adopting e-commerce through online sales in their daily operations. This measure supports investment towards the design, development, implementation and delivery of an e-commerce website and/or a mobile application, or an upgrade of an existing website or mobile application to enable online sales/bookings.
