Go-Green Co-Innovation Program – Round 2

Overview

Go-Green Co-Innovation Program (GGCIP) is a joint initiative established under the Singapore-Australia Green Economy Agreement (GEA), which was signed by Senator the Hon Don Farrell, Australian Minister for Trade and Tourism and Singapore Minister for Trade and Industry, Gan Kim Yong on 18 October 2022.  GGCIP seeks to facilitate collaboration between Australian SMEs and Singapore businesses in jointly undertaking projects that drive the decarbonisation of economic activities or help Australia or Singapore to transition to net zero emissions. By incentivising Australian SMEs to establish or expand business and commercial activities with Singapore businesses, GGCIP seeks to boost trade and commerce between Australia and Singapore in environmental goods and services across green sectors. The GGCIP will be jointly implemented by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG). DFAT will oversee the GGCIP grants made available by the Australian Government for eligible Australian SMEs. EnterpriseSG will manage the grants provided by the Singapore government to support eligible Singapore companies working in partnership with Australian SMEs under this program. Australian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are invited to apply for grant funds that support green co-innovation projects with Singapore businesses.
