An experienced Chief Executive Officer and/or other senior executive talent is often essential to successfully taking a new product, process or service to market.
Commercialisation Australia provides funding to successful applicants of up to $200,000 over two years (up to $100,000 per year) to engage such an experienced executive. This assistance is designed to give small innovative companies access to the management skills they need.
Experienced Executives assistance is awarded through a merit based, competitive process. This funding can only be accessed if the applicant is a company with a turnover of less than $10 million per annum.
Grant funding provided under Experienced Executives assistance needs to be matched 50:50 by the applicant.
More information on eligible activities for Experienced Executives is in the Customer Information Guide. More information on how to apply for Experienced Executives assistance can be found in the Apply section.
