Welcome to Edition 9 of AusIndustry's online bulletin, AusFocus.
In this edition we learn how the Australian Government’s new R&D Tax Incentive will help thousands of businesses grow and develop their ideas, helping them prosper and securing high-wage, high-skill jobs for our communities.
We profile our customer, Bionomics Limited, who are developing two exciting new drugs: BNC210 to treat anxiety and depression; and BNC105 which targets blood vessels in cancerous tumours.
We feature a new online resource to help your business deal with emergencies. We also show you how Australian businesses and industry groups can have their say on the Australian Government’s $1.2 billion Clean Technology programs.
And lastly, we hear from our portfolio Minister, Senator the Hon Kim Carr, and see how the R&D Tax Incentive could be the biggest boost for Australian manufacturing in a generation.
