Welcome to the Hort Innovation Nashi Fund
In February 2019, the Australian nashi industry moved to begin investing unspent funds left over from the historic collection of the statutory nashi R&D levy. This investment will happen through the Hort Innovation Nashi Fund. More information on the levy and the investment process can be found here.
As the levy begins to be invested into new initiatives, this section of Hort Innovation’s website will come to house key information including updates on levy fund management; details on the industry’s investments and their progress; resources and tools relating to investments; and plenty more.
