The Albanese Government has opened Round 15 of Cooperative Research Centres Projects (CRC-P) Grants to develop new technologies, products, and services.
The government expects to award around $40 million in grants to small and medium businesses for projects to support a circular economy or meet the key priorities of the National Reconstruction Fund.
Projects which support the national Science and Research priorities are also welcome to apply to Round 15 grants.
Since the CRC-P scheme was introduced in 2016, more than $500 million has been awarded to over 200 Australian businesses and organisations across Australia.
In recent rounds the government has supported research projects which include:
- A medical innovation device that tracks catheter locations in premature babies in need of intensive care.
- A process to recycle wind turbine blades.
- Addressing ‘no and low alcohol’ winemaking challenges including microbial stability and shelf-life, and textural deficiencies.
