- Monica Russell who provided insights into the journey of Ontic Ortho Solutions, a company she co-founded with A/Prof David John Saxby highlighting the progression from research to reality.
- Robert Thompson discussed the array of surgical products manufactured by the company.
- Stuart Douglas presented Maxoniq's journey from research to reality
Additionally, A/Prof Chris Carty from Griffith University shared his and Dr Martina Barzan's experiences participating in the Lumina- X Healthcare accelerator program https://lnkd.in/gYgMpg8y.

The symposium served as a great opportunity for all participants to reconnect and network. We eagerly anticipate the next annual symposium and look forward to further collaborative opportunities.
