On Lincolnshire Broadband Update

Just been talking to Nicola Summers (Project Fund Manager) for the Lincolnshire Broadband Initiative and the good news is there is still funding available for SMEs looking to update their ICT facilities - computer and Internet-related equipment. It's 50/50 matched funding and the entry level is £4000. That is £2000 from the SME and £2000 from On Lincolnshire The grants are restricted mainly to the objective 2 funding area, but when you register on site there is a geographical eligibility checker tool if you're not sure whether you come within the eligible area. I suggest applying soon as funds are running low, although onlincolnshire are in the process of being assessed as to how much funding will be available. If you are eligible you will have to go through a diagnostics process to assess your requirements, and to check that what you want the funding for is allowable. A number of my clients have been through the process and have been impressed with the help and guidance they have been given. So my advice is to act quickly if you think your business could benefit from such a service.
