Finding government grants for starting a business means looking at what the Australian government has to offer for small business financial assistance. The government has put money aside to help businesses get a start and to help existing businesses that are in need. To find government grants for starting a business would mean looking at the funding programs available through the Australian government grants and loans programs for small business funding. You would need to fill out an application for one of these funding programs to see if you can qualify.

What could you do for your small business if you were to obtain a grant or a loan of $5,000 or $50,000 or even more from the government? Or would you be able to benefit from a private investor investing their time and money into you and your business? It is a possibility�so be sure to find out how much funding your small business may be able to obtain. Become a registered member and start your funding search.

You can also take advantage of the Small Business Startup Assessment Tool below and see the tools and resources you need to succeed at launching your business. It takes just a minute and will also tell you if there may be any funding programs available.
