Advance Queensland Industry Attraction Fund

14 December, 2018

AQIAF seeks to bring innovative projects to Queensland and help them grow in order to drive job creation, regional growth, increased innovation and technology and supply chain development.

To be eligible to receive AQIAF support your project must be contestable, meaning that it could be undertaken in more than one location. For example: a project that must be based at an airport on the east coast is contestable, compared to one that must be based specifically at Brisbane airport.

Additionally, your project must perform very strongly against at least some of the following criteria:

  • Employment – the extent to which a project will result in a sustainable increase in employment. This includes any flow-on impacts on employment in other sectors.
  • Regional development – the extent to which a project will achieve positive regional development and employment outcomes.
  • Increased innovation and technology – the extent to which the provision of a financial incentive will result in the implementation of an innovative technology or business practice.
  • Capturing greater value from global value chains – the extent to which the provision of a financial incentive will enable the business to move up and along global value chains.

To register your interest to receive more information on release, please contact the Industry Attraction team: Email: industryattraction@dsdmip.qld.gov.au; Tel: 1300 379 567
