About the SMBE NSW Inc

The Society for Medical and Biological Engineering NSW Inc (SMBE NSW) was founded in 1966 to advance the cause of Biomedical Engineering in New South Wales.

Over the course of its history, SMBE NSW has become one of the largest Biomedical and Clinical Engineering organisations in Australia.  SMBE NSW comprises biomedical engineers, technicians, managers and sales and service personnel from hospitals, service organisations and a wide range of medical equipment manufacturers and suppliers. Members come from not only NSW but many other states and territories of Australia.

About the Conference

The annual SMBE (NSW) training seminar is a not-to-be missed event for biomedical engineering personnel to meet and discuss common issues affecting their services, attend specialist training sessions on current and emerging technologies and to develop networking contacts.

The annual Conference is the SMBE’s main vehicle for networking and dissemination of knowledge on new equipment, technology and procedures. Annual seminars began in 1989 to bring much needed training and networking opportunities to the technicians working in regional and remote NSW.  They now are well attended by city and country engineers and technicians across Australia.
