4. Technology Transfer Voucher
POLICY OBJECTIVES
The objective of this initiative, in addition to the overall objectives of this tool, is to increase the transfer of technology and related knowledge between businesses and accredited publicly funded research organisations by supporting business-led projects that develop better linkages between the two.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
-
Only a business or a group of businesses are eligible to receive funding via this tool. A business or group of businesses may nominate a representative to receive funding.
-
A business must be a person or entity that is in business and resident in New Zealand, and:
o where a group of businesses are applying together, each of the businesses involved must meet these criteria.
o where a business or businesses nominate a representative to receive the funding, the business or businesses must meet these criteria. A nominated representative does not need to meet these criteria.
-
Businesses may not be an entity established under or governed by the Education Act 1989, Crown Research Institutes Act 1992, Local Government Act 2002, Local Government (Auckland Council) Act 2009, or the New Zealand Public Health and Disability Act 2000; or an entity that is 50% or more owned by one or more of those types of entities, and:
o where a group of businesses may receive funding together, such groups may not include one or more of the above types of entities; and
o where a nominated representative may receive funding, these entities may, however, act as nominated representatives.
-
Where a nominated representative may receive funding, the nominated representative may only receive funding when the Board is satisfied that those funds will ultimately be used or applied by or for the benefit of the nominating business or businesses.
This initiative will support research and development activities that respond to business needs. The research and development activities will be undertaken by an accredited research organisation.
