How to apply
Applications for Innovation Connect ACT are made through ACT Government, not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.
Apply for Innovation Connect ACT on the official site
Applications close in October 2026. Government grant portals are busiest on the final day and several of them close on the stroke of the deadline, so the practical advice is to submit a day early.
