Join us on Monday 29 April for the announcement and the live-streamed celebration of our 2024 BioMelbourne Network Women in Leadership Awardees!

Launched in 2015, BioMelbourne Network’s Women in Leadership Awards recognise and champion women who are making outstanding contributions to the healthtech industry. The 2024 Awards Ceremony will honour three remarkable leaders, at different stages of their careers, who have taken strategic risks, tenaciously pursued goals and served as role models to the younger generation. Our 2024 Awardees were nominated by colleagues in the industry and the final recipients were selected by an esteemed pre-screening committee and judging panel.

See our Women in Leadership Awards Honour Roll for more information about past recipients.
