The spreadsheet reflects the funding profile of current PGS&T contracts. Areas not included are: Envirolink, International Investment Opportunities Fund (IIOF), Pre-Seed, Research Consortia, Textiles, TechNZ and Supporting Promising Individuals (SPI).
Due to the majority of our contracts moving to the new contract year start date of 1 October, the first and last year within financial years may vary.
Researchers can use this information to plan which years they might decide to prepare a proposal, based on which contracts mature in any given year and the parties involved in those contracts.
