Funding Assistance for Industry:
For minor measurement issues, there is a scheme operated by TechNZ which may cover the cost of up to $1000 worth of consultancy with approved suppliers (which includes MSL as part of Industrial Research). For further information on the scheme visit their website or contact David Moger of Industrial Research. Large companies or government departments are generally not eligible for this support.
The Technology for Business Growth (TBG) scheme provides partial funding of up to 50% of the cost of R&D and technology transfer projects involving an industrial company and an appropriate technology partner (such as CRIs or universities). The level of funding provided is usually between $50,000 to $500,000. If you have a project that may benefit from MSL's specialist measurement expertise please contact us. Notes for applicants and an application form can be found on the FRST website.
