BEAM (Broadband for E-Business and Marketing)

Project Partners: FedNor

In today’s digital marketplace to remain competitive businesses must be using the Internet to their advantage. To fully leverage the economic benefit of broadband access, businesses must not only use broadband; they must transform their business. The Broadband for E-Business and Marketing Program (BEAM) helps alleviate some of the associated costs of establishing your business online or for the costs associated with implementing or upgrading E-business applications.

BEAM provides a framework to help business owners define their business objectives and ensure that the right technology is implemented to achieve the desired outcomes. The program provides a rebate for 75% of eligible costs, up to a maximum of $5,000. In conjunction with the program NEOnet will encourage applicants to participate in E-Business workshops and training opportunities to ensure they are adequately equipped to utilize the E-business applications (Please visit the events page for a list of upcoming workshops).

The BEAM program addresses the gap between a non-technical business owner and the vendor, as business objectives are clearly defined prior to the implementation of the E-business tools. NEOnet will work with the business to help them define their objectives and ensure the appropriate E-business tools are chosen. BEAM is designed to allow the business to identify and easily implement E-Business applications as the program stirs away from the technical development and focuses on how the business objectives are going to be achieved.

PLEASE CONTACT THE NEONET OFFICE PRIOR TO COMMENCING YOUR APPLICATION PROCESS IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT THERE ARE STILL FUNDS AVAILABLE IN THE PROGRAM!
