CSIRO applications now open for agrifood SMEs
CSIRO is now accepting applications for small to medium-sized agrifood businesses interested in understanding research and development opportunities that may be available to them or those who are in the early decision-making stage of a research and development project.
The ‘Innovate to Grow: Agrifood’ program is free, self-paced and delivered online over 10 weeks with CSIRO’s Edtech partner Practera. The topics covered include how to apply for funding, budget a project and assess where innovation can be found. Participants will be given access to mentorships and live workshops.
Businesses from a range of fields across the agrifood sector, including the food and beverage, meat and meat processing, aquaculture and fermentation industries, are eligible to attend the course.
The application form is available online, along with more information such as eligibility criteria. Registrations will close on 11 October.
