Only six businesses have received funding from a government scheme to help SMEs to increase their digital presence, with less than 1pc of the available €5m budget paid out so far.

The Grow Digital Voucher was launched last September, offering up to €5,000 to small businesses in all sectors that have up to 50 employees.
