Mayor of York and North Yorkshire, David Skaith, said: “As a small business owner, I understand that sometimes it’s hard to find the time or money to take your business to the next level – especially getting online.
“That’s why I am proud to welcome our new Digital Adoption Grant. This will help businesses to succeed online and give businesses the tools to boost their reach online. It is a direct investment in our businesses and a vote of confidence in their ability to take the next step in a digital world.”
