Hi Team,

Just a heads up, scarily the process for 4 year federal organisation funding through Creative Australia is coming around again! It is a long process, which is probably why it doesn’t feel like that long since the last one.. Just wanted to flag this for everyone as many of the companies we work with throuh APAX in particular, and some members, will be starting to think about this.

PAC Australia is not eligible for this, and even if we were, I don’t believe we would be competitive in the current environment as an organisation that doesn’t make work, but I’ll attend the webinar on 14 May to get the background and hear any questions coming from the sector in that process so we can keep our finger on the pulse on any shifts/changes/impacts etc.

If you are hearing anything on the ground as well, please raise at the team meeting – with state funding so volatile at the moment, the pressure is going to be even more intense around federal org funding, so it’s important we’re all mindful of this over the coming months.

Cheers,

Katherine
