Grants to Support the Expansion of Markets in Australia

Funding Information

• developing and/or implementing virtual opportunities and avenues for the presentation of established work (which may or may not be monetised) as an alternative to physical presentation
• developing and/or implementing new models of, and opportunities for, more sustainable presentation that reduces carbon emissions.
