2022 Innovate with nbn Award Winners

Helping regional Australian businesses win more of the billions of dollars government grants and tenders available is what motivates social enterprise founder of iClick2Learn Natalie Bramble.

Having worked in the grant and tender writing space for several years, it is the smaller regional Australian businesses missing out contracts and grants in providing community transport, domestic violence support, repair, maintenance and cleaning services.

Where regional businesses are missing tenders to run services in their own areas, it is often larger organisations from capital cities providing the service, and not necessarily using regional and local resources to do so.

“They are replacing or removing existing staff, bringing their own people who are not located locally, and divesting the community of the full economic advantage a locally awarded grant or tender would have provided,” she said.

As the winner of the Education category, iClick2Learn was awarded $15,000 to continue development of their online learning platform.
