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 ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ 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.
