Murray Street Launchpad Grant Program

The Murray Street Launchpad Grant Program strengthens Western Australia's health and biomedical innovation ecosystem by supporting activation and operation of the Murray Street Launchpad, a dedicated innovation hub in the Perth CBD. The Launchpad provides a visible and accessible entry point for entrepreneurs, founders, startups and innovators seeking to progress health and biomedical innovations from early concept through to proof of concept and initial investment readiness.

Up to $10 million is available over an initial 5- year funding period. Through this competitive grant process, the Department of Health is seeking expressions of interest from suitably qualified organisations, or lead applicants for consortia, capable of activating, managing and stewarding the Launchpad and delivering the intended program outcomes.

Applications are invited from eligible legal entities, including companies, not-for-profit organisations, universities, research organisations and consortia led by an eligible legal entity.
