AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Defence Industry Grants: More than $22m has been handed to 60 Australian businesses under the Defence Industry Development Grants, backing upgrades in areas like submarines, aerospace, guided weapons, robotics and cyber security. SME Funding: The Additive Manufacturing Cooperative Research Centre has opened its $3.25m STARTER Project Funding Program, offering $20k–$75k matched co-funding so SMEs and start-ups can run 3–12 month industry-led 3D printing trials with researchers. Cyber Security Inquiry: A new federal House of Representatives select committee has started an inquiry into cyber security preparedness for SMEs and organisations, with a focus on guidance, standards, and how smaller businesses can buy services. Consumer Law Crackdown: Parliament has passed new rules to ban subscription “traps” that make cancellations hard, with protections extending to small business subscribers from July 1, 2027. Local Trading Pressure: Melbourne’s CBD is under renewed scrutiny after Laurent Bakery founder Laurent Boillon said violence and drugs are driving businesses to shrink footprints. Competition Watchdog: The ACCC has blocked a second Coles supermarket in Kalgoorlie-Boulder, arguing it would likely harm smaller competitors in a market of about 30,000 people. AI for Small Business: Sauce Communications launched BrandSafe AI to help SMEs use generative tools safely and protect their local reputation.
