Sponsorship Opportunities

On behalf of the Australasian Association for Clinical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine (AACB), we invite you to join us for the 62nd AACB Annual Scientific Conference (ASC) in Auckland, New Zealand, from October 13-16, 2025.

The Annual Conference is our flagship educational and scientific event, offering professional development opportunities for a diverse group of members, including pathologists, medical scientists, technicians, researchers, trainees, and laboratory managers across the Australasian region. The conference features a world-class scientific program and provides sponsors with a strategic platform to showcase their support and align their brand with this premier event.

This year’s theme, "Shedding Light on the Medical Laboratory ‘Black Box’," highlights the complexities behind the results that many clinical and non-clinical colleagues may not fully understand. The conference will include sessions on a wide range of current and relevant topics in the pathology and medical laboratory testing fields, all connected to this theme.

Inside this prospectus, you’ll find various opportunities for your consideration, and we’d be delighted to discuss how AACB 2025 can help meet your marketing objectives.

We look forward to your successful participation in the 2025 AACB Conference!
