Victoria is home to a thriving healthcare ecosystem with unprecedented construction of new hospitals and medical facilities. Global supply chain vulnerabilities and a renewed focus on local manufacturing resilience have focussed attention on the importance of maintaining a strong, collaborative local medtech manufacturing sector. Two key challenges that local manufacturers face is buyer awareness of local capability, and industry understanding of the most critical needs of health buyers.

ICN Victoria’s Medtech Showcase 2024 will address these challenges by showcasing local capability to health buyers and forming new connections. Identifying needs on both sides and connecting manufacturers with Health Services will help drive greater alignment and opportunities for a stronger healthcare ecosystem.

Join the ICN Victoria’s CEO Nick Foa, medtech industry leaders and government representatives to discuss how local manufacturers are meeting the challenges in the health procurement landscape. Hear from health buyers, including HealthShare Victoria who will inform local manufacturers on forward demand trends and critical needs. 

The event will feature a stellar list of speakers and LIVE opportunities.
