EDGE Grant: What Budget 2026 Means for Your SME

Budget 2026 announced that Singapore's three workhorse SME grants — PSG, EDG and MRA — will be consolidated into a single grant called EDGE, launching in the second half of 2026. Here is what is changing, what stays the same for now, and how to decide whether to apply today or wait.

What was announced

At Budget 2026, the Government announced that the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG), the Enterprise Development Grant (EDG) and the Market Readiness Assistance (MRA) grant will be consolidated into one grant — EDGE — launching in the second half of 2026.

Until EDGE launches, the existing schemes remain in force. If you qualify for PSG today, you can still apply today under the current rules.

What changes alongside the consolidation

Related changes to MRA and non-SME internationalization support were also announced. Consult the linked official Budget 2026 source for the current rates, dates, and activity conditions; GrantGo SG does not currently assess MRA or EDGE.

The final EDGE eligibility criteria have not been published. Our assessments therefore evaluate current PSG rules only and present EDGE announcement details as context, not as an eligibility verdict.

PSG today: the rules that still apply

Under the current PSG rules, a company generally qualifies if it is registered and operating in Singapore, has at least 30% local shareholding, and meets the SME definition — group annual revenue of not more than S$100 million, or not more than 200 employees. Support outcomes are read from the exact ruleset version cited in each assessment.

One rule catches many applicants: if you have already signed a contract with, or paid, your vendor before applying, your application will be rejected. Apply first, commit after.

The solution you purchase must also be used in Singapore.

Should you apply now or wait for EDGE?

If you qualify under the current PSG rules and have a concrete solution to buy, applying now under known rules is generally the lower-risk path — the current schemes remain in force until EDGE launches, and waiting means applying under criteria that have not been finalized.

If you do not qualify today — for example, on the local-shareholding requirement — the announced EDGE changes may or may not affect you. Re-check when EnterpriseSG publishes operational EDGE criteria.

How GrantGo SG fits in

GrantGo SG is software, not a consultancy. You answer a short questionnaire and get a deterministic, rule-version-cited PSG assessment — with EDGE announcement context kept separate — and can generate a draft Business Grants Portal document pack for S$4.50 during our launch offer (normally S$9).

Every assessment cites the exact rule version it was evaluated against, and our rulesets are updated when EnterpriseSG publishes changes.
