Kit Digital is an initiative of the Spanish Government, managed by Red.es, whose aim is to promote the digitalisation of small companies, micro-enterprises and self-employed workers, and to help modernise Spain’s productive fabric. It has a budget of **3,067 million euros**, funded by the European Union through the NextGenerationEU funds, within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, the Digital Spain 2026 agenda and the SME Digitalisation Plan 2021-2025, and its objective is to digitalise SMEs and self-employed workers from all productive sectors across the whole country. According to our expert **Joaquin Perez,** these subsidies represent “an opportunity that no company or self-employed worker should let pass by”, since Kit Digital is a grant awarded by the Government “to **practically all SMEs and self-employed workers to advance their digital transformation**“. ## – What are the amounts of the Kit Digital programme? The grant amount for companies with between 10 and fewer than 50 employees is **12,000 euros**. For companies with between 3 and fewer than 10 employees, the digital vouchers are worth **6,000 euros**. Finally, the grant for SMEs with between 0 and fewer than 3 employees is **2,000 euros**. ## – What benefits does Kit Digital offer applicants? According to **Joaquin Perez**, our **Kit Digital expert at Impactiq**, “practically everything about this grant is a benefit”, starting with the **simplicity of the application process for companies and of meeting the requirements**. Strategically and at a business level, “the benefits are significant because it is a very powerful aid for **starting to digitalise or consolidating the process** at zero cost”, our expert assures. For example, this grant can be invested in websites, online shops, search engine optimisation (SEO), social media or the digital management of the company. ## – Who can apply? Self-employed workers and SMEs with fewer than 50 employees ## – How can a self-employed worker or company find out which agencies can provide Kit Digital services?

Some of the digitalisation solutions that SMEs will be able to apply for and implement are the following: website and internet presence, social media management, e-commerce, customer management, virtual office services and tools, business intelligence and analytics, process management, electronic invoicing, and secure communications and cybersecurity. In addition, for the second and third segments, advanced internet presence and marketplace solutions are also available. “In this context, our experience with SMEs and self-employed workers who have been awarded the grant tells us that it **really is a genuine boost for making progress in such strategic areas as their websites, online shops or search engine optimisation (SEO)**“, our expert at **Impactiq** assures.
