Exciting changes to the Innovation Booster Grants in 2023

We can’t say too much yet, but we hear there are some most excellent changes coming to the Innovation Booster Grants in 2023 and who better than Charlie Gunningham to tell us all about it!?

The Innovation Booster Grant is an initiative of the WA Government’s [New Industries Fund](https://www.wa.gov.au/organisation/department-of-jobs-tourism-science-and-innovation/new-industries-fund), which assists WA-based startups and small businesses to commercialise their innovative ideas or projects, and to expand to create jobs.

So come along and hear about the changes, how you can apply and more!

**Pre-show fireside chat with Tribe Global & Rampersand VC**
We recently discovered that [Tribe Global](https://tribeglobal.vc/) and [Rampersand VC](https://www.rampersand.vc/) are in Perth for a very limited time, so we’ve squeezed in a quick fireside chat hosted by the legendary Tim Brewer.

**Agenda**

**7:15 am** – Fireside chat with Tribe Global and Rampersand VC hosted by Tim Brewer
**7:50 am** – Exciting changes to the Innovation Booster Grants with Charlie Gunningham
**8:20 am** – Q&A
**8:30 am** – Networking
**9:00 am** – End

If you’re looking for funding for your startup, this is not an event to miss!

**Live stream**

This event will also be live streamed for the regions courtesy of the [New Industries Fund](https://www.wa.gov.au/organisation/department-of-jobs-tourism-science-and-innovation/new-industries-fund) from the Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation!

When the time comes, you can watch the live stream here:

Note – You do NOT need to RSVP to this meetup to watch the live stream. Only click “I’m going” if you’re attending in person.

If you’re in Perth, it’s always better to attend in person as that’s where the magic of Morning Startup happens! Come and network with other startup folks – you never know who you’ll meet! See you there!

**Regional watch parties**
Is Perth too far to travel, but you still want to watch the Morning Startup live stream with others and network with your local community? Here’s a list of regional watch parties:
