Northern Territory Tourism Business Accelerator EOI 

Applications for the NT Accelerator 2026 are now open.

We are excited to announce the Northern Territory Aboriginal Tourism Accelerator Program, a joint initiative delivered by IBA and the Northern Territory Government - now in its third year.

This program is designed to bolster the growth and sustainability of the Aboriginal tourism sector in the Northern Territory.

We invite Aboriginal people residing the Northern Territory, majority owned and controlled Aboriginal businesses and tourism operators to apply and be a part of this transformative journey.

Please note the following important points as you prepare your application:

• All questions in the application form must be completed for your application to be assessed.
• Eligible individuals are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people residing in the Northern Territory. Travel participation arrangements will only be for movements within the Northern Territory.
• The NT Government and IBA reserve the right to conduct additional due diligence processes as part of the assessment.

We look forward to receiving your application and exploring the opportunity to work together.
