Accelerating Commercialisation is a service under the AusIndustry Entrepreneurs’ Programme that provides you with advice and funding to get your novel product, process or service to market.

What you get?

You’ll be paired with an independent facilitator. Your facilitator will make recommendations to take your project from prototype to your first commercial sales and they’ll help you apply for the commercialisation grant.

Who is this for?

Businesses, start-ups and researchers who have a novel product, process or service ready to scale up and commercialise in global markets.

Accelerating Commercialisation has 2 key stages:

• guidance stage, which connects you with a facilitator
• grant stage, to fund your commercialisation project.

A customer service manager will contact you to discuss your application and ensure your project meets the novel criteria for Accelerating Commercialisation. One your application is approved, your facilitator will work with you to give recommendations on your business and support you to apply for the merit based Accelerating Commercialisation grant.

There’s no upfront cost for Accelerating Commercialisation guidance. However, you’ll need to invest your time to get the most out of it. If you are applying for a grant you will need to commit resources such as matched funding, staff, facilities or equipment, depending on the nature of the project.
