Minister Dutton has announced a new Entrepreneur visa to encourage and
attract innovators and entrepreneurs to come to or stay in Australia.
The new visa is one of a number of strategies under the newly announced
National Innovation and Science Agenda.
The new visa will assist in retaining highly educated and
talented foreign students who have gained their knowledge base in Australia.
Graduates with STEM subject qualifications (science, technology,
engineering and mathematics) or specific ICT and related fields will
benefit from the new visa. A pathway to permanent residence will be facilitated
for foreign student graduates from these disciplines with specialised doctorate
level and Masters-by-research qualifications.
