IMPORTANT NOTE:
This round of grants has two stages – the grant no longer functions on a “first in best dressed” basis.
Stage One is a Register of Interest (ROIs) which is a short form that will ask you to provide core business information and confirm your eligibility to apply for the grant program. Valid ROIs will be assessed through a ballot system with a number of applications invited to move to Stage Two.
Stage Two is the full application where you will be providing all business information and project information and your quotes. Each valid ROI will have an equal opportunity to be selected.
All of the information can be found on the Queensland Business Basics Grants Program website and we highly encourage you to read through it.
Registrations of Interest (ROIs) open at 9am, Monday 30 September 2024 and close at 5pm, Friday 11 October 2024.
ROIs are not time sensitive and registrations can be completed anytime while the stage is open.
Not all registrations will be invited to submit a full application. You will not be able to appeal if your registration is not selected to move to Stage 2: Full application.
This grant program is competitively assessed. Not all applications will be funded.
