Singapore has put serious money behind digitalisation and AI adoption — for charities, SMEs, and enterprises. This page is our plain-English map of the schemes that matter, with every figure checked against the official source it came from.
General information, not advice. Eligibility and approval rest entirely with the administering agencies — see the sources and disclaimer below.
The short answer: yes — for once, the money is looking for you. In 2026, eligible Singapore social service agencies can have up to 80% of a digital project co-funded through the NCSS Transformation Sustainability Scheme — with CRM systems named on the supported list — while companies can draw on the expanded Productivity Solutions Grant, the S$150 million Enterprise Compute Initiative, and 400% tax deductions on qualifying AI spend under the Enterprise Innovation Scheme.
Two taps, and we'll point you at the scheme worth reading first.
An indicative pointer, not advice — eligibility and approval are decided entirely by the administering agency. Figures as published at the official source, June 2026.
The social sector has the most generous digitalisation support in Singapore — and CRM systems are named on the supported list.
NCSS's umbrella support for organisational transformation, including digitalisation. Three components matter for technology projects: consultancy and implementation support (Part A), bespoke digitalisation projects (Part B), and pre-scoped solutions (Part C).
NCSS lists Part C supported solution types as “HR management systems, account management systems, event booking platforms, CRM systems, or API integrations” — and Part B examples include custom web portals and AI chatbots.1

Budget 2026 made AI adoption a national priority. Three schemes do the heavy lifting.
For companies ready to build a real AI solution. Participants get cloud credits, training and AI tools from partner cloud providers, plus subsidised consultancy for AI strategy, technical implementation, and change management — typically toward a working MVP.

Budget 2026 will “expand the scheme to include AI expenditures as a qualifying activity, for the Years of Assessment 2027 and 2028, capped at $50,000 per Year of Assessment.”3
In practice: a meaningful slice of what you spend building or adopting AI can come back through your tax bill. Confirm what qualifies with your tax adviser.

“Expanded to support more digital and AI-enabled solutions, so that every firm, regardless of size, can access tools that help them work smarter and compete better.”4
The PSG funds adoption of pre-scoped solutions from approved vendors. Budget 2026 also announced Champions of AI, a new programme to “back leading companies with the ambition to use AI to transform their businesses comprehensively.”4

Agencies fund clear outcomes — a working system, a measurable gain — not vague "AI transformation". A tightly scoped MVP with a named user group beats a big-bang platform every time.
Most schemes cover a percentage, not everything. Budget for your share — and for the hours your own team will put in.
Applications want quotations, scopes, and outcome measures up front. A vendor who scopes the project with the application in mind saves you weeks.
GoodTechHoldings builds software — Socianote for the social sector, and custom builds including AI features, internal tools, and mobile apps. When a project may align with a funding scheme, we scope it the way agencies like to see it: clear deliverables, measurable outcomes, and documentation you can attach to an application.
We're not grant consultants and we don't process applications for you — but we'll tell you plainly which scheme looks relevant, link you to the official source, and structure the engagement so the paperwork is light.
