DIN invites industry and Defence to help identify important defence problems. We are seeking problem statements with high potential to satisfy defence capability needs. Selected problems will create a base of call for proposals to our member universities. Successful proposals will be funded up to $200,000 by the DIN Pilot Project grant scheme.

The Defence Innovation Network, an association of seven leading NSW universities, has received support from the NSW Government to fund collaborative research projects with direct industry and defence focus.

The intent of our Pilot Project grant scheme is to conduct a rapid feasibility study on new ideas for Defence and develop these ideas into concept or technology that can attract further investment from the government or industry.

DIN is inviting industry and defence representatives to help identify important defence problems. We are seeking problem statements with high potential to satisfy defence capability needs. We will then invite you to pitch your problem statement at our up-coming Sandpit Workshops attended by academics, Defence stakeholders and industry (as per below).
