This year’s programme focuses on the issues shaping the operating environment for medical device suppliers, including the Medical Device Management Transition and the introduction of the Medical Products Bill, due to be introduced to Parliament in June 2026. These reforms will redefine how medical technologies are evaluated, procured and regulated in New Zealand.

In two days, attendees will gain practical insights and strategic context through sessions covering:

  • Government health priorities and election-year policy direction
  • Updates from Health New Zealand and Pharmac leadership
  • Market access and procurement developments
  • Regulatory reform and implementation of the new legislative framework
  • The evolving role of technology and innovation in improving patient outcomes

The programme features senior health sector leaders and expert speakers, alongside opportunities for discussion, networking and peer engagement. Highlights include the Minister of Health’s opening address, economic and policy perspectives from Sir Bill English, regulatory briefings from the Ministry of Health and Medsafe, and dedicated supplier sessions focused on preparing industry for upcoming changes.
