Publishers get extended deadline for government innovation fund
The application deadline for the first round of the federal government’s Regional and Small Publishers Innovation Fund has been extended.
Applications for the scheme – which is ostensibly intended to help smaller publishers adapt to a new digital landscape – now close on August 10, instead of July 27 as originally planned.
The ACMA is still yet to announce the results of the Regional and Small Publishers Innovation Fund. It has promised results for October, then mid-October, then November, then mid-November, and now its end of November, and they still haven’t completed their job.
