What is the Industry Growth Program?

The Industry Growth program supports start-ups and innovative small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) to undertake commercialisation or growth projects within the National Reconstruction Fund priority areas.

  • commercialisation and growth strategies
  • funding avenues
  • market testing
  • business models
  • building networks.

Stage 2 of the program will provide matched grant funding for SMEs who are operating in priority areas identified under National Reconstruction Fund.

How do I apply?

You can apply for expert advice (stage 1) now.

Applications for grant funding (stage 2) is expected to open in early 2024.
