TRANSCRIPT
Australian National Fabrication Facility
A company established under NCRIS to provide nano and micro-fabrication facilities for Australia’s researchers
The National Collaborative Research Infrastructure strategy (NCRIS) was announced in
the 2004-2005 budget as part of the Backing Australia’s Ability – Building Our Future through
Science and Innovation package. NCRIS is providing $542 million from 2004-05 to 2010-2011
to develop and fund national research infrastructure projects.
