The following are types of support that can be requested:

1. Assistance with grant applications

2. External partnerships for applied outcomes

3. Event Support/Sponsorship

4. Travel Support - includes bringing over high-profile individuals from other universities for a period of co working, visits by UoA scientists to other organisations or workshops designed to develop high profile outputs.

Please note that seed funding for research is not a type of funding that will be approved.

Funding must be expended by September 2024 unless negotiated otherwise.
