The GSTDF brings researchers and companies together from across the globe, helping to boost the science and technology potential of Australia and our international partners.
Successful projects:
- solar-powered technology to generate hydrogen
- digital manufacture of modular panels to build more affordable housing faster
- development of next generation light conversion devices, sensors, and ultra high brightness devices
- development of a solar thermal-plasmonic reactor to split seawater for hydrogen production
- advanced manufacturing of permanent rare-earth magnets
- creation of more durable, adaptable hydrogels for use in reconstructive surgery
- manufacturing next-generation solar cells using AI
- advancing and optimising electrode manufacturing methods
- advancing radiation testing techniques.
The GSTDF has flexible funding for collaborative projects with select partner countries for projects that align with Australian Government priorities. Round 1 projects will support Australian teams to collaborate with partners in countries including Japan, the Republic of Korea, Thailand, Singapore and New Zealand.
The Australian Academy of Technology, Science and Engineering (ATSE) administers the program in partnership with the Australian Academy of Science (AAS).
