MedTech Conference 2024 Review
The MedTech Conference 2024, held on 23–24 October at ICC Sydney, reaffirmed its position as Australia’s premier gathering for the medical technology industry. Guided by the theme “Connect Today. Transform Tomorrow.”, this year’s Conference brought together leaders, innovators, clinicians, policymakers, and investors to explore how collaboration today can shape a stronger, more resilient MedTech future.
Over two dynamic days, the Conference provided a platform for dialogue and discovery, focusing on the innovation, regulation, and policy pathways that will define the next decade of MedTech in Australia. The event opened with a compelling keynote from Dr Daniel Nour, 2022 Young Australian of the Year and Founder of Street Side Medics, whose message on the power of purpose-driven innovation resonated deeply with attendees.
The 2024 program featured a diverse mix of plenary sessions, expert panels, and interactive discussions, addressing critical themes such as digital transformation, regulatory reform, health system sustainability, investment and commercialisation, and workforce development. Each session reflected the importance of cross-sector collaboration in accelerating the translation of medical technologies from concept to clinical impact.
The exhibition hall served as a vibrant hub for connection and engagement, showcasing the latest in medical technologies and solutions. Delegates had the opportunity to interact with industry leaders, experience live demonstrations, and exchange insights on how innovation continues to drive improvements in patient care and health outcomes.
Feedback from attendees reinforced the Conference’s continued relevance and impact, with 95% of participants rating the event four stars or higher for program quality, content, and overall experience. The overwhelmingly positive response highlighted the Conference’s unique role as both a thought leadership forum and a collaborative space for advancing the shared goals of the MedTech sector.
The MedTech Conference 2024 truly embodied its theme — “Connect Today. Transform Tomorrow.” — by turning connection into action and ideas into progress. As the pace of innovation accelerates, the Conference remains a vital platform for aligning Australia’s MedTech community around a collective vision of innovation, sustainability, and improved patient outcomes.
