cIIF ('see-if') is a new $15 million competitive grants program to accelerate the innovative use of the next generation of ICT by Victorian government, business and community.

The program provides project-based funding to support early adopters of new technologies to undertake collaborative projects that develop new ways of working and solving problems.

Funding application forms, program guidelines and important dates can be found in the cIIF online application toolkit at the Multimedia Victoria website here.

Victorian Government departments and agencies, industry bodies, local governments, community organisations and business groups are all encouraged to apply for funding under the program. Projects must be collaborative and involve multiple partners or organisations working together.

Public information sessions will be held in early 2009, please see here for registration details.
