What free government funding programs are available in Australia?

There is government business financing available in Australia in the form of business loans and government grants, but the idea of free government funding programs is a common myth rooted in an unfortunate misunderstanding of what business grants do and what the recipients obligations are in exchange for the government money. Government funds are provided at the national, state, and local government levels but, again, none of these programs are actually free, even those that do not have to be repaid, due to other conditions.
