Business Boost and Business Growth Fund (Queensland)
Closed for now
Queensland small business grants are re-announced each state budget cycle with varying names and quantum. Monitor business.qld.gov.au grants finder and register for alerts, since rounds close extremely quickly.
Business Boost provides grants of around A$15,000 for small business capability projects; the Business Growth Fund provides up to A$50,000 for specialised equipment to enable high-growth businesses to scale. Both are matched-funding programmes.
You must co-fund 50%.

Deadline: annual_call — Both programmes run in short competitive rounds that have historically closed within days of opening due to demand, sometimes using a registration-of-interest ballot.
This funder does not publish a success rate. We rank it using the rate observed across similar programmes and label it as an estimate rather than implying we know.
Major bid — written case, budget, possibly partners.
