- to a stage where feedback indicates the MVP is inadequate for the planned business model
Grants of up to $25,000 are available to cover up to 50% of approved project costs.
Regional recipients of the MVP grant may also be able to claim a travel stipend to help them travel for an innovation-related purpose.
