We are pleased to announce that Deskpro has been selected as one of 8 official software vendors on the UK Government's Help to Grow: Digital Scheme, which will help UK based SMEs to identify their digital technology needs and assist them in purchasing and implementing new software into their business.

This scheme includes a discount for eligible UK SMEs of up to 50% off approved software which can be applied to Deskpro Team, Professional or Enterprise plans.

Chris Padfield, CEO & Founder of Deskpro: "We are very proud that Deskpro was selected as one of the 8 suppliers for the UK Government's Help to Grow: Digital scheme. This is an exciting scheme for UK based SMEs looking to grow with discounted software."

The Help to Grow Scheme, which launched in January 2022, is a UK Government backed scheme which consists of two programmes, Management and Digital, that aims to teach SMEs in the UK new skills and boost their profits.

The aim of the scheme is to help up to 100,000 small and medium enterprises across the UK over three years adopt and implement digital technologies that are proven to increase profits and firm-level productivity. In an effort to support the growth of start-ups that have had to adjust their operations as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
