AusIndustry Fact Sheet
(Last Reviewed : 31/08/2010 )
KEY POINTS
AusIndustry is the Australian Government’s principal business program delivery division in the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research.
AusIndustry offers both entitlement and grant programs. For a grants-based program, customers compete for limited funds, based on the merit of their application. For entitlements-based programs, such as the R&D Tax Concession, a customer makes a claim, based on their self-assessed eligibility. (See the
AusIndustry Program Summary
for more detailed information on these programs).
AusIndustry’s aim is to increase the prosperity of all Australians through internationally competitive and sustainable business:
through excellence in policy formulation and implementation
by excelling in business program and service delivery
by being a respected source of knowledge through our understanding of the business environment and business networks.
