EnterpriseSG is consolidating the Enterprise Development Grant (EDG), Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) and Market Readiness Assistance (MRA) into one unified EDGE scheme launching in the second half of 2026. EDGE offers up to S$100,000 per year and, unlike the SME-focused legacy grants, is open to all Singapore-registered businesses including non-SMEs. Overseas-expansion support rises to 70% for SMEs (from 50%) and 50% for non-SMEs (from 30%); until EDGE goes live, EDG, PSG and MRA remain available via the Business Grants Portal.

Singapore to merge EDG, PSG and MRA into single EDGE grant in H2 2026
Why this matters for founders
Founders planning digitalisation, capability-building or market-entry spend should map projects to one EDGE application via the Business Grants Portal rather than juggling three grants, and time bigger overseas-expansion claims to capture the higher 70% co-funding.
