Who is eligible for funding?

PEI Businesses who have been impacted by the effects of COVID -19 measures are eligible to apply, with the exception of real estate development.

What activities are supported through this assistance?

This assistance will contribute to the costs associated with:

• obtaining business, human resources or financial planning and advice
• obtaining advice on transitioning to digital or IT solutions
• obtaining advice on exporting, marketing, and logistics
• obtaining other professional services which may be of assistance in adapting or recovering from the impacts of COVID-19, determined in consultation with Innovation PEI
