Horizon Scanning: Medicines of Tomorrow is Australia’s only horizon scanning forum that brings together government, patient groups and industry to showcase new and disruptive technologies on the horizon that must be planned for today.

Wednesday 3 September 2025 – Parliament House Canberra

Presented by Medicines Australia in partnership with the Australian Commonwealth Department of Health, Disability and Ageing, Medicines of Tomorrow showcases the major global therapeutic advances delivering a step change in patient treatments and outcomes and disrupting our health care system in coming years.

Robust horizon scanning is an indicator of a world-class health system and insights through horizon scanning can speed up patient access to new medicines and improve health, wellbeing and economic outcomes.

This event serves as an important platform to showcase major therapeutic advances which may enter Australia’s regulatory or reimbursement systems within the decade and may represent a significant disruption in the treatment paradigm and/or require innovation in health care system planning. The Forum also highlights the potential implications for governments from the introduction of these advances in terms of resources, systems and processes. 

The 2025 Horizon Scanning program will be announced in July and Medicines Australia Members and invited guests will be invited to register.
