The Albanese Government is delivering critical capabilities to Defence with new rounds of grants with a focus on building a sovereign Defence industry, directed towards strategic priorities outlined in the Defence Strategic Review.
Seven Australian businesses have been awarded grants worth a total of $3.8 million under the Defence Global Competitiveness program and the Sovereign Industrial Capability Priority program.
These grants provide up to half the cost of a project to help Australian businesses build capabilities crucial for Defence and to overcome barriers for Defence exports.
