AusBiotech 2026

Australia’s biotech sector has never had more to prove or more to show for it, and this is the week it comes together. The AusBiotech International Conference is the country’s largest biotechnology conference and the anchor of Australia’s Biggest Week in Biotech, bringing more than 1,600 delegates to the Gold Coast alongside the AusMedtech conference and the AusBiotech Invest investor stream. It is the flagship gathering of Australia’s peak industry body, and the room where local companies, global partners and investors meet.

Across the week, the focus is on what turns Australian science into commercial reality: investment, partnership, commercialisation and the connections that carry a company from research to market. Delegates work the exhibition floor and the AusPartnering business-matching platform, and the conversations run from early-stage capital to global expansion. As a Melbourne-based company built for exactly this market, Akesa will be there throughout.

Who to meet, and why

AusBiotech draws the full breadth of the local ecosystem and a strong international contingent. It is worth a conversation with us if you are:

• An Australian biotech or pharma company planning trials, or preparing to launch and supply in-market
• A sponsor or CRO building supply and access capability across Australia and the wider Asia-Pacific region
• An investor or business development lead looking at companies with real operational depth behind the science
• A hospital pharmacy or procurement team sourcing non-PBS medicines for patients
• A manufacturer or distribution partner extending into the Australian market

Meet Akesa, Clincor and Aksys on the Gold Coast

This is home ground for us, and it is the one event where our full offering is on show. Akesa is the operational partner behind clinical trial supply and medicine access across the Asia-Pacific region, sourcing comparators, combination therapies and standard of care, and running managed access programs. Clincor gives clinical trial sites on-demand ordering, automated approvals and real-time supply visibility. Aksys gives Australian hospital pharmacies a direct, compliant way to order non-PBS medicines, and is already live in public hospitals around the country. If any of that maps to your plans, our Business Development Director for APAC, Karen Montgomery-Douglas, will be on the Gold Coast and glad to meet.
