CSIRO offers program to prepare R&D opportunities with defence
Applications are open for the upcoming Innovate to Grow: NSW Defence Industry program. This is a free, ten-week program for small to medium enterprises in NSW to investigate research and development (R&D) opportunities related to defence solutions.
This program starts Tuesday, 26 April 2022 and applications have been extended until Tuesday, 19 April 2022.
The Innovate to Grow program is a self-paced and virtually delivered program to boost innovation performance of SMEs in high-priority sectors. The course will provide tools and information to better understand what is involved with R&D and key things to consider at each step of the process.
Attendees will be exposed to R&D opportunities and industry knowledge, and will hear from innovation and industry experts and work with a sector or R&D mentor.
This program is open to NSW SMEs (fewer than 200 employees) working in defence from the subsectors: integrated intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance; enhanced human performance; medical countermeasures; advanced materials; advanced sensors or quantum technologies; autonomous systems. CSIRO notes that they also include participants from a variety of industry subsectors and regions.
