The Board of the World Endometriosis Society (WES) has selected Sydney to host the World Congress on Endometriosis in May 2025.
The announcement was made at the WES Congress in Edinburgh over the weekend.
Secured by the Australian Society of Endometriosis working with bidding specialists at Business Events Sydney (BESydney), the Sydney Congress will be held at the International Convention Centre Sydney. It is expected to attract more than 1,000 scientists, clinicians, researchers, and patients, and generate an estimated A$3.9million (US$2.6 million) in direct expenditure over four days.
BESydney CEO Lyn Lewis-Smith said: “Sydney was able to create an exceptional team of national representatives from across the spectrum of endometriosis research, clinical care and patient advocacy to lobby for this important event. We know that by bringing people together through events like this, delegates are provided the opportunity to contribute to ideas and solutions that will impact the lives and wellbeing of women around the globe.”
The women’s health discussion will continue on into 2026 in Sydney with the previously announced Asia and Oceania Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Congress. Sydney has a strong global reputation for its robust health and life sciences industry and ground-breaking facilities such as the Westmead Health and Innovation Precinct, which continues to attract important global health events each year.
Coming up on the Sydney calendar in 2023, major health and life science events include the FDI World Dental Congress, World Conference on Family Doctors (WONCA) and the World Congress on Safety and Health at Work.
Tourism Australia Managing Director, Phillipa Harrison, said securing the 2025 World Congress on Endometriosis with the support of the Business Events Bid Fund Program, was a great outcome.
“International business events deliver significant benefits to our visitor economy and Australia looks forward to welcoming delegates to Sydney for the WES event in 2025.”
