The grant can be up to $20 000 (excluding GST). The funding is set aside for supporting projects undertaken to improve a business. This does not include everyday expenses of the business, but will include purchases and services that will improve the overall service and skill your business can provide. ![grant business growth australia](https://www.beyonddebt.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/20-fenchurch-street-architecture-buildings-34092.jpg?width=450&name=20-fenchurch-street-architecture-buildings-34092.jpg) ## Eligibility ### An eligible business will: - Have received a: - Submit an [application](https://forms.business.gov.au/smartforms/landing.htm?formCode=BG) within six months of receiving above plan - Be implementing action points included in above plan - Be able to cover the entire cost of the project before receiving the Business Growth Grant ![business growth grant eligibility](https://www.beyonddebt.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/arrows-box-business-533189.jpg?width=450&name=arrows-box-business-533189.jpg) ## Services that Qualify You The Business Growth Grant is only available to businesses who are employing a professional or paying for a service that will improve the quality of service they provide. This could include services such as hiring mentors for staff, or conducting intensive training or up-skilling. The service must directly improve the business, such as hiring a professional for Intellectual Property (IP) advice, or to bring on an advisory board. The grant could also cover equipment costs, for example, in order to grow the business to accommodate demand for a product. It may also cover advanced technological machines such as medical devices, or logistical systems.
