The one grant that replaces EDG, PSG and MRA
In short
EDGE is Enterprise Singapore's single business grant from 30 September 2026. It funds up to 70% of qualifying costs for SMEs and up to 50% for non-SMEs, up to S$100,000 per company per year, of which up to S$30,000 can go to digital solutions, enterprise systems and automation. You apply by activity on the Business Grants Portal, before starting the work, and are reimbursed after you pay.

What each retired scheme did, and where that support sits now. Each old grant still has its own page: EDG grant, PSG grant, MRA grant.
| EDG | PSG | MRA | EDGE | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Status | Closed 29 Sep 2026 | Closed 29 Sep 2026 | Closed 29 Sep 2026 | Open from 30 Sep 2026 |

Better
SME rate up to 70% across the board, non-SMEs admitted, and overseas support no longer limited to new markets.
Tighter
One S$100,000 yearly budget shared by every project, where EDG scoped each project on its own and MRA allowed S$100,000 per market.
Simpler
One catalogue of activities. You no longer decide between three grants and three sets of forms.
Enterprise Singapore groups over 100 supportable activities into 8 business areas, of which 7 are named so far. The full activity list goes live on the EDGE website and BizSG from 30 September 2026. Here is each area and the scheme that used to fund that work.

Our reading of the published categories. The activity list on the Business Grants Portal decides; we update this table when it goes live.
The annual cap is per company, not per project. Every EDGE activity you are approved for in a year draws from the same S$100,000. Under the old schemes a PSG purchase, an EDG project and an MRA market each had their own ceiling. Now they compete.
The digital allowance is inside the cap. Up to S$30,000 of the S$100,000 can go to single-function digital solutions, integrated enterprise systems and selected automation. Spending it reduces what is left for everything else.
Timing is a lever. The cap refreshes on 1 April each year. A large programme split across two grant years can claim up to S$200,000 instead of S$100,000.
The formula
Calculated with the same engine as the calculator above, at the maximum rate.
SME, first EDGE project this year
Grant
S$16,800
You pay
S$7,200
Effective
70%
Under PSG this was 50%. At up to 70% it now fits inside the digital allowance with room to spare.
SME, first EDGE project this year
Grant
S$30,000
You pay
S$50,000
Effective
38%
70% of S$80,000 is S$56,000, but system builds count toward the S$30,000 digital allowance. Scope the parts that are process redesign as a separate capability activity where the portal allows it.
SME, already sells in Malaysia
Grant
S$63,000
You pay
S$27,000
Effective
70%
MRA would have refused this: Malaysia is not a new market. EDGE removes that test.
SME with three projects
Grant
S$100,000
You pay
S$65,000
Effective
61%
Both caps bite. Before EDGE these were three grants with three budgets; now they share S$100,000. Moving one project past the annual reset recovers the difference.
Non-SME, previously shut out of EDG
Grant
S$75,000
You pay
S$75,000
Effective
50%
Non-SMEs can now claim, at up to 50%, within the same annual cap.
The 70% SME rate assumes the SME test EDG, PSG and MRA used: group annual revenue up to S$100 million or group employment up to 200. Enterprise Singapore has not restated it for EDGE yet. Not sure which activity fits? SME Centres give free advice, and so do we.
Carry on. Anything submitted before 30 September 2026 is assessed and claimed under its original scheme. EDGE applies to new applications only, and previous recipients are free to apply for EDGE on top.
Mistakes that cost the grant
Some guides quote details that are not on any official page. These are the open points we are watching, and this page updates when they publish.
EDGE is Enterprise Singapore’s consolidated business grant. It replaces the Enterprise Development Grant (EDG), the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) and the Market Readiness Assistance grant (MRA) with one application, where you pick the activity you want funded instead of first working out which scheme it belongs to.
EDGE opened on 30 September 2026 and is now the only pathway for new applications that EDG, PSG and MRA used to cover.
Up to 70% of qualifying costs for SMEs and up to 50% for non-SMEs, depending on the activity. Each company can receive up to S$100,000 a year across all EDGE activities combined.
Within the S$100,000 annual cap, up to S$30,000 can be used on single-function digital solutions, integrated enterprise systems and selected automation. It is part of the S$100,000, not on top of it.
No. All three stopped accepting new applications on 29 September 2026. Applications lodged before 30 September are still assessed under the old rules, and approved projects continue to completion and claim.
Nothing changes. Enterprise Singapore has confirmed ongoing projects are supported through to completion and claim disbursement under their original terms.
Yes. EDGE is open to all Singapore-registered businesses, including non-SMEs, at up to 50% of qualifying costs. Most of EDG, PSG and MRA was closed to them.
No. MRA only funded markets where you had under S$100,000 of sales in each of the last three years. That test was removed for EDGE, so deepening an existing market is supportable.
Yes. Enterprise Singapore confirms previous applicants and recipients can apply for EDGE.
On 1 April each year, per Enterprise Singapore. The S$100,000 is shared across all your EDGE activities in that year.
Nothing. Enterprise Singapore says EDGE is not an acronym; the name conveys giving enterprises an edge over competitors. Expansions you may see online, such as "Enterprise Development and Growth Engine", are wrong.
No. Change requests only cover the project end date and claim due date. To change vendor you terminate the project on the Business Grants Portal and submit a new application, so confirm your vendor before you apply.
Only for activities that have a pre-approved vendor list, which works like PSG did. Where no list applies, you may engage a vendor of your choice.
Enterprise Singapore names Automation & Digitalisation, Business Strategy, Financial Management, Innovation, Internationalisation, Standards and Sustainability, and says there are 8 in total with over 100 activities. The full activity list is published on the EDGE website and BizSG from 30 September 2026.
On the Business Grants Portal with your company’s Corppass. Choose the activity, attach the vendor quotation and project details, and submit before signing a contract or paying anything. Support is paid as a reimbursement after the work is done and paid for.
No. Enterprise Singapore states EDGE is not supportable under SFEC. SFEC-supported programmes under EDG, MRA and PSG must submit final claims by 30 November 2026.
Enterprise Singapore assesses larger customised projects case by case. Otherwise, phase the work so later parts fall into the next grant year.
No, the company applies itself through the portal. A good adviser earns their keep by picking the right activity, scoping costs so they qualify, and phasing projects around the two caps. Our eligibility check is free.
