What is SMB Grant Hub?

SMB Grant Hub empowers small and medium businesses to secure vital funding, streamlining grant applications and appeals across 8 essential platform pages.

Am I eligible for the SMB Grant Hub subsidy?

You must have a business presence or operations in the country of application, and the subsidy must be used in the same country. Subsidies are recurring annually with no expiry.

What does 'presence or operations' in the country mean?

It means your business is registered, has a physical office, or carries out ongoing operations in the country you are applying in. For example, if applying in Singapore, you must have presence or operations in Singapore.

Do I need to be a certain size of business to qualify?

SMB Grant Hub supports small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Whether you're a startup or an established SME, you can apply as long as you meet the country-presence and usage requirements.

Can I apply in more than one country?

Yes. You may apply in any country where you have presence or operations. Each application is tied to the country of application, and the subsidy must be used in that same country.

Are there restrictions on what the subsidy can be used for?

Subsidies cover eligible IT software, IT hardware, IT security, and online services through our pre-approved international vendors. The solution must be used in the country of application.

Is the subsidy a one-time grant or recurring?

Subsidies are recurring every year and there is no expiry. Once approved, you do not need to re-apply every year — the subsidy continues annually.

Do I need to re-apply each year to keep receiving the subsidy?

No. Once your application is approved, the subsidy recurs annually without the need to re-apply. This is one of the key benefits of the SMB Grant Hub program.

How much of my project cost is covered?

Eligible businesses can receive up to 85% of project expenses covered upfront — no need to pay the full cost and claim back later.

Is there a cap on the subsidy amount?

Coverage is up to 85% of eligible project expenses. The exact amount depends on the specific subsidy and your project scope, which our team will confirm when your application is processed.

How do I apply for a subsidy?

Use the 'Apply Now' button on any page to submit your interest. Your request is placed in our system queue, and we'll email you when it's your turn to start the application.

Do I have to pay the full cost first and claim back later?

No. Subsidies are given upfront — there is no need to pay the full cost and then claim the subsidy back. This removes the cash-flow burden common with other grant programs.

How does the queue system work?

When you submit your interest, you receive a queue number. Applications are processed in queue order. Once your ticket is reached, our team will reach out to guide you through the remaining steps.

How long does the application process take?

Applications are processed in queue order. Once your ticket is reached, our team will reach out to guide you through the remaining steps. Timelines depend on your position in the queue.

Can I submit an appeal if my application is rejected?

Yes. If your application is not approved, you can submit an appeal via the Submit Appeal page. Provide your original queue number and the reason for your appeal, and it will be re-reviewed.

What supporting documents will I need?

You may be asked to submit supporting documents on top of your application, such as proof of business presence, project details, and vendor quotes. Have these ready should you be asked to provide them.

I'm a vendor — how can I partner with SMB Grant Hub?

Established businesses can apply as a Pre-Approved Agent via the Vendors page. All other businesses can list directly on gbiz.asia, our global business directory.
