Proof of Concept Funding
The GRDC Proof of Concept Funding program focusses on research activities that provide critical information to give confidence in the potential concept or innovation and facilitates the scoping of future research and development. Proof of concept activities are a critical step in the development of any innovation. It is at this stage that the feasibility of an innovative concept is tested through experimentation or pilot projects. Proof of concept projects are usually time-sensitive, relatively low in capital and set the scene for future research and development, typically involving a significant increase in the financial resources as well as technical sophistication required to take the innovation all the way to adoption and impact.
