Innovation and Research & Development

The Commonwealth and State Governments offer well over $2 billion in assistance for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) every year.

This includes the Commonwealth flagship R&D tax incentive, Commonwealth innovation grants, State innovation and technology grants, Commonwealth Sector specific grants (for example, medical research and manufacturing), and Export Market Development Grants and associated support.

In addition, The Commonwealth funds and promotes public-private industry collaboration through Cooperative Research Centres, the CSIRO, Universities and other industry specific R&D research centres.
