What type of government funding is available for Australians?

It is possible to obtain government funding through a large variety of sources and departments within the Australian government. There are a large number of government departments that offer funding and are very pleased to have Australian businesses benefit from such funding support. Funding can be obtained in a variety of ways, including government loans which can take the form of government guaranteed loans, low interest or interest-free loans, or through a grant, which is money provided to a business under the understanding that it is not repayable. Some loans are also provided as a non-repayable amount of money, so the benefits are widespread when pursuing the government funding opportunities and can alleviate a lot of financial burden and high interest rates required through financial banking loan arrangements.
