I'm guessing most of that money will be used by Canopus and UNSW considering the CEO of Canopus is a professor at UNSW.
Pentanet just got their name on there because they own 11.45% and will be used as a testing platform for Canopus, I doubt they'll have any meaningful impact or input into this.
Looking at some of the available resources on the grant it does look like its UNSW led and run.

------
They can't use the money they get for anything but the research project, from the grants page.

You can use the funding to cover costs directly related to your project including:
- new research
- proof of concept activities
- pre-commercialisation of research outcomes
- industry-focused education and training activities
- conferences, workshops, symposia related to the joint research
- information sharing and communications related to the research.
