What is the process for getting government grants to start a business in Australia?

You can go about getting government grants to start a small business if you find small business grants that you qualify for. Then you must determine which grants would best match your objectives, and write proposals for the grants you are interested in. The proposals should say why you would benefit from the grant, what you need to use the money for, and what your long term small business plans are. If you are chosen as the winner out of all the applicants for a grant you will be awarded funds, and must spend them in accordance with the rules of the grant.
