Australia’s biggest hearing health event
Audiology Australia (AudA) CEO, Ms Leanne Emerson said Australia’s biggest hearing health event was an unmissable opportunity for those looking for an extra edge in preparing for the changing clinical and operational demands facing audiology.
“With Australian and international audiologists, researchers, hearing health experts and commercial leaders expected to attend, there is no other opportunity like it to expand your networks, open new opportunities and build knowledge and skills at the cutting-edge of contemporary audiology and hearing health,” she said.
With the theme ‘Unite, Innovate and Evolve Together’, AudA is hoping the event will start a conversation across the pipeline from research to translation and clinical delivery, that transforms the profession’s mindset about how to foster the foundations of innovation.
Emerson said Australian hearing health’s strength lay in ideas sparked mid-conversation and “the opportunities we seize at just the right time”.
“It lies in the partnerships we build, and the innovation we dare to drive,” she said.
“Whether we’re researching, in the clinic or translating discovery into new realities, we do it best together.
“The AudA 2025 Conference is focusing on the ‘us’ of audiology with a program designed to ignite new collaboration across the innovation pipeline, inspire knowledge sharing and foster technological and clinical advancement.”
The Government of South Australia, Business Events Adelaide and the Adelaide Convention Centre are supporting the conference.
