A Golden Opportunity for AgriFood SMEs

A Golden Opportunity for AgriFood SMEs: Two Support Programs Open for Applications

In a significant stride for agrifood SMEs, CSIRO and AgriFutures have unveiled two vital support programs designed to foster innovation and growth in the industry. Here we delve briefly into what each initiative offers.

CSIRO’s Innovate to Grow: Agrifood Program

The CSIRO is offering a free 10-week online program to mentor SMEs in advancing their technologies and solutions through meticulous research and development (R&D). Starting with a compulsory workshop on 2nd November, the initiative promises guidance from industry experts and opportunities for matched R&D funding. Applications are open until 15th October with a focus on select sub-sectors, although others remain in consideration.

AgriFutures’ evokeAG Initiative

Meanwhile, the evokeAG initiative by AgriFutures aims to spotlight local agrifood innovations on a global stage through an online platform and a tech showcase event set for 20-21 February 2024. This initiative encourages startups with strong market potential to apply and benefit from networking opportunities with potential investors and partners. Applications remain open until 23rd October.
