Application for funding

Aligning Parramatta’s economic development with those of like-minded organisations is a key tenet of the Parramatta Twenty25 vision. To achieve this, Council works in partnership with other business support organisations to ensure maximum leverage of resources and intellectual capacity.

Through Council’s Industry Partnership Fund, financial and in-kind support is made available to non-profit organisations to contribute to Parramatta’s economic development and growth.


How much can be applied for?

For the 2008/09 financial year, Economic Development in Parramatta is partly funded by a special levy, and each year the Economic Development Team encourage partner (and potential partner) agencies to express interest in conceiving and running particular projects that meet our strategic objectives.

Funding will always be limited to a maximum of 40% of total project costs, and financial contributions are usually limited to $10,000.

How to apply

You will need to download two documents:

  1. Industry Partnerships Funding Guidelines 2008-2009  (715Kb)
    A guide for applicants outlining the terms, conditions and criteria for funding.
