Perth Biodesign Showcase 2026
Perth Biodesign Showcase 2026 🎉
Ten years of health innovation. Meet what comes next.
Join WA’s health innovation community for an evening celebrating Perth Biodesign’s 10th anniversary and the next generation of innovators tackling important healthcare challenges.
Over the past decade, Perth Biodesign has brought clinicians, engineers, researchers and entrepreneurs together around a shared purpose: understanding unmet clinical needs and developing technologies to address them. Along the way, the Perth Biodesign village has emerged—launching ventures, changing practice within organisations, and helping make Western Australia a place where healthcare innovation can thrive.
This year’s Showcase brings that community together to meet the people taking us forward.
Meet the 2026 Flagship cohort
After seven months of clinical immersion, research, invention and development, our teams will present their work publicly for the first time. Hear the unmet needs behind their ideas, the thinking that shaped their solutions, and their plans for turning those solutions into real-world impact.
Meet the teams, ask questions, and connect with the alumni, mentors, clinicians, investors and industry partners who help promising ideas progress.
