Grants – 4 Steps

A great place to start with pulling together the demographic profile of your area/project is ID.com.au/

https://home.id.com.au/demographic-resources/

Their Grant Application Guide points out the 4 areas that are often overlooked when writing grants:

  1. Setting the Strategic Context.  What are the drivers of your economy, population, industry contect, forecasts, barriers to growth. Most importantly – what are the outcomes of similar projects.
  2. Model the Economic Impact of the Project.  Gather economic impacts, visitations, look at modelling for impact of an event or construction.
  3. Cost Beneft Assessment.  Work with an economist to project this data.
  4. Assess the Wider Community Benefits.  Look at disadvantage analysis indicators, and quantitative evidence.

Strong applications can leverage significant funds for a region.  Need help?  We work with select economists, industry specialists to deliver robust fundable applications.

Regional Business Incubation or Acceleration?

Ki Media is working with a range of people in the Southern Highlands looking into the best model for business acceleration in regional areas. Agribusiness, tourism product development and health innovation are three areas of interest to the region.

Local banks, schools, retail, government and service providers are in the discussion.

We welcome involvement in this development for the Southern Highlands and examples of best practise happening elsewhere.
