Callout for Aust clean energy startups: CSIRO
CSIRO is inviting Australian startups and small to medium enterprises (SMEs) to apply for the latest round of the India Australia Rapid Innovation and Startup Expansion (RISE) Accelerator.
This round focuses on renewable energy and is seeking innovative technologies that address challenges in clean energy manufacturing, storage and management — including solutions in solar, battery, wind and hydrogen.
Delivered by CSIRO and India’s Atal Innovation Mission (AIM), the RISE Accelerator is purpose-built for startups and SMEs looking to expand into India. Participants receive support for early market entry, technology validation, and connections to key partners and customers.
Selected companies also benefit from one-to-one coaching, a tailored learning program and up to $135,000 in non-equity grant funding (subject to performance and competitive assessment).
Applications close 30 June 2025.
