Exciting news in the medical technology industry in Australia as the AusMedtech, which has been going since 6 years, will be held for the first time in Melbourne, Victoria; thanks to the State Government of Victoria, on Friday 15 and Saturday 16 in March. The AusMedtech exhibition will take place at The Sebel in Albert Park.

AusMedtech will provide the opportunity for many businesses as well as individuals to inform themselves and find out more about export opportunities, finance and investment, hot technologies and updates in the fields of IP, regulatory approvals, health economics and reimbursement and sales networks as well as medical technology such as cleanrooms; and unite Australian and international leading key stakeholders from the medical devices and diagnostics sectors to discuss issues in global Medtech success as well as focus on emerging markets.

AusMedtech will give you the opportunity to plan your success on the medical technology market, which is one of the fastest growing markets in the world, with special emphasis in countries like India, for example. Australia happens to be the fourth largest market by revenue for medical devices and the third largest for diagnostics in the Asia Pacific region.

The Medtech industry is advancing rapidly into new fields of science and engineering, with nanotechnology reserving a place right at the top.

AusMedtech conference is held biannually by AusMedtech, part of AusBiotech, Australia’s biotechnology industry organisation.
