Covid-19 has meant that most businesses have had to rethink how they work. The Creative Digital Initiative (CDI) has been established to help Scottish creative and cultural SMEs and Micro-businesses develop their digital capabilities. CDI will help you identify existing digital support as well as potentially offering new funding, training and advice. All the details of new support opportunities will be available on the site as soon as they go live, and you can sign up for the CDI newsletter to receive the information directly to your inbox.

The programme has been developed through a partnership of Scotland’s enterprise agencies (Highlands & Islands Enterprise, Scottish Enterprise, South of Scotland Enterprise, Business Gateway), Skills Development Scotland, Creative Scotland and the Scottish Government.

The site features an enquiry service.
