Business people in meeting, shaking hands.

Commercialisation Australia is an initiative of the Australian Government. It is a competitive, merit-based assistance program offering funding and resources to accelerate the business building process for Australian companies, entrepreneurs, researchers and inventors looking to commercialise innovative intellectual property.

It offers a range of funding options as well as multi-layered networking opportunities to help you achieve business success. Participants in the program work with dedicated Case Managers and benefit from our Expert Network. You can apply for Commercialisation Australia support at any time. The first step is to read the Customer Information Guide and complete a Stage 1 Application Form.

"Access to adequate funding is critical. However, access to the right skills, insights and networks is equally, if not more, important. By providing timely funding and access to a diverse range of skills and experience, Commercialisation Australia will enhance participants' prospects of commercial success and enrich Australia's commercialisation ecosystem."    Doron Ben-Meir, CEO of Commercialisation Australia
