CRC for Developing Northern Australia Project Funding Round

Overview

The CRC for Developing Northern Australia Project Funding Round supports short term industry-led research collaborations to develop important new technologies, products and services which address industry problems in northern Australia in the areas of:

  • tropical health and medicine, including models of care; and
  • tropical and northern agriculture including animal and plant improvement and sustainability.

The CRC for Developing Northern Australia Project Funding Round will kick-start the important work of the CRC for Developing Northern Australia.

Funding of a maximum of $3 million is available for up to three years to support short term, industry-led collaborative research projects to develop important new technologies, products and services which address industry problems in northern Australia. 

Projects funded under the CRC for Developing Northern Australia Project Funding Round must have at least:

  • two Australian industry organisations including at least one small or medium-sized enterprise (SME) and
  • one Australian research organisation

A lead participant (that is an industry entity) must submit the application. You do not need to be located in northern Australia to be eligible to apply, but projects must be able to demonstrate how project outcomes will directly benefit northern Australia.
