Sponsors and exhibitors

We invite your organisation to become a Sponsor or Exhibitor at the 2025 NACCHO Members’ Conference.

Our conference has grown in stature, scope, and attendance, making it the premier gathering for leaders and practitioners from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health sector. The 2025 conference will host delegates representing 146 Aboriginal community-controlled health organisations (ACCHOs) and eight state and territory affiliates. Our network spans 550 clinics nationwide, proudly serving over half a million clients annually. Collectively, we employ over 7,000 dedicated staff members, making us one of Australia’s top three employers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Building on last year’s success, which drew nearly 900 attendees and over 100 inspiring presenters from every state and territory, the 2025 conference offers your organisation a unique opportunity to engage and connect with our delegates from all over Australia and promote products and services.

This year, our conference theme, “Strength Comes from Community Control”, highlights the remarkable impact of our community-led approach over the last 54 years. The effectiveness of the community-controlled health model serves as the cornerstone of our sector’s lasting success, driving better health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across Australia.
