About this listen
A practical guide to the grants, incentives, and support programs Australian manufacturers can actually use in 2026.
Shane Williams and Paul Mason step back from the detail to map the landscape of federal and state funding programs available to manufacturers this year. We cover:
- The biggest funding opportunities for 2026: Made in Queensland, National Reconstruction Fund, ARENA, and more
- Why R&D, clean tech, and sovereign capability are the dominant funding themes right now
- The difference between funding that helps you scale and funding that creates distraction
- How to approach applications, where businesses get stuck, and how to assess program fit
- Non-grant support options including R&D Tax Incentive and Instant Asset Write-Off
Whether you're mapping investment priorities, planning a capital upgrade, or exploring R&D options, this episode gives you a clear view of where the real opportunities are.
