New Industry Enhancement Program launching in 2022
This program will support a small number of bold, innovative and industry enhancing proposals designed to elevate the local industry.
Screenwest is excited to launch the guidelines for its new Industry Enhancement Program.
This innovative new program has been developed in line with Screenwest’s ambitious 2021-24 Strategic Plan, which has set an aspirational goal to grow production expenditure in the State to $300M per annum over the next five years.
The Industry Enhancement Program aims to leverage international and national funding into Western Australia and ultimately increase production levels in the State. The fund will officially open in SmartyGrants in January 2022 and will remain open for at least 8 weeks, giving companies the ability to connect, collaborate and capitalise on current and new relationships and investment opportunities prior to applying.
“With the ambitious targets Screenwest has set for local industry growth, there is a need for bold, innovative thinking, collaboration and market partnerships. If Western Australia is going to compete with the rest of the world, we need to be thinking outside our traditional methods of development and production. I’m excited to see what ideas will be sparked by this fund. ” said Rikki Lea Bestall, Screenwest CEO.
Screenwest encourages all production companies to read the guidelines over the summer break ahead of the program opening in January 2022 and an open Q&A forum to be held in February 2022.
