About
The Future Fund invests on behalf of Standards Australia in businesses innovating to improve safety, efficiency and quality across the economy.
Our strategic focus is to enable standards to play a central role in delivering best practices in innovation and the businesses driving it.
We look for brilliant ideas, teams and technologies, which operate in sectors where the adoption and use of standards is critical to success; and in businesses with ground-breaking technologies that can positively transform standards-based knowledge distribution and practical implementation.
We participate globally, in early-stage funding rounds, with strategic and patient capital.
We are Australia’s leading standards development organization.
For 100 years we have worked closely with industry and government to help Australian businesses operate more efficiently and sustainably, and to help keep Australians safer.
We represent Australia in international standards-setting organizations, including ISO and IEC, supporting our nation to succeed in international trade.
