The funding was announced by Innovation Minister Philip Dalidakis, who said the addition of GGA to the Bendigo start-up community would continue to act as a catalyst for innovation in the region, helping to stimulate new business growth and create jobs through mentoring, training and improving access to venture capital networks.
“We are working hard to see Victoria become the number one location for start-ups across the Asia Pacific and LaunchVic is a big part of making that happen.” he said.
GGA will receive $300,000 under round two of the $60 million LaunchVic start-up initiative.
