The Albanese Government is investing $3.4 million in innovative Australian businesses to support the delivery of cutting-edge defence capabilities while creating highly skilled jobs and boosting local manufacturing.
The latest round of the Defence Global Competitiveness and Sovereign Industrial Capability Priority programs will provide 50 per cent matching grants to 10 businesses, creating more than 50 jobs and helping to drive exports.
Grant recipients include a NSW company developing state-of-the-art counter-drone technology, a South Australian producer of composite structures for guided munitions and hypersonic vehicles and a Queensland business that manufactures complex components for use in precision guided munitions and hypersonic vehicles.
This vital assistance adds to more than $100 million already awarded to over 230 Australian businesses under the two grant programs which support delivery of capabilities prioritised in the Government’s response to the Defence Strategic Review.
The latest recipients are:
