The Knowledge Fund

The Knowledge Fund has been established as an opportunity for the wine industry and the hospitality suppliers industry to support Australia's sommeliers through learning, development, education and recognition opportunities.

A key focus for the Sommeliers Australia is partnering industry in bringing learning, development, education and recognition opportunities to Australia's sommeliers, at all stages of their professional journey.
The Knowledge Fund has been established for that purpose – an opportunity for the wine industry and the hospitality suppliers industry to support Australia's sommeliers through the ongoing activities of the organisation that represents them, the Sommeliers Australia.

These activities include:

• Establishment and delivery of national, sommelier focussed education programs.
• Sommeliers Competitions, giving the best and brightest the opportunity to learn, shine and be rewarded.
• Regular masterclass tasting opportunities focused on areas that will enhance the skills of sommeliers.
• Ongoing website and communication development giving sommeliers access to information, news, and networking opportunities.

Those wine industry members that choose to work with us will be recognised publicly by the Sommeliers Australia in all of our communications and will be provided with unparalleled partnership opportunities.

The Knowledge Fund is a clear way to lift support beyond the traditional and basic sponsorship model. It is a way to contribute in a way that lifts a partner's profile and standing with our membership and the outside world while at the same time making a real difference to future of sommeliers in their chosen career.

It is a key partnership and we look forward to sharing it with you.
