Up to $2 billion available to finance IT initiatives in key economic stimulus areas
While the United States government’s economic stimulus package will provide businesses with crucial funds to enable IT projects in areas vital to US economic growth and recovery, much of those funds won’t be disbursed until 2010. To help organizations bridge the gap and get started on stimulus initiatives today—and even expand the scope of their projects—IBM Global Financing is making available up to $2 billion in financing opportunities to credit qualified clients in the United States.
IBM Global Financing’s $2 billion investment is slated for technology solutions in key economic stimulus areas including Smart Grid, Health Information Technology and Broadband Access—and is available to organizations of all sizes. The funds will enable businesses to invest in new 21st century infrastructure with low financing rates and an array of flexible payment options that can help preserve their cash and credit lines for other strategic, revenue-generating investments.
Even though most government funds won’t begin to flow until next year, it's in your interest to implement a financing solution now that can help accelerate your organization's technology implementation, improve your competitive edge and point you in the direction of economic recovery.
