2022 AWITC Sponsorships
2022 AWITC NSW Delegate Sponsorships
NSW Wine, the NSW Department of Primary Industries and AWITC are sponsoring a combined total of 15 delegates to attend the 18th Australian Wine Industry Technical Conference (AWITC) and trade exhibition in Adelaide, South Australia from Monday 27th June to Wednesday 29th June 2022.
There are two NSW sponsorship programs for delegates available.
- Emerging NSW viticulturists (6 available)
- New NSW wine industry career entrants (9 available via the nsw skills development program)
The aim of both programs is to select delegates to attend the 18th AWTIC as a sponsored NSW ambassador.

For new NSW wine industry career entrants, the assessment committee will consider:
