Invitation to Attend

Dear Colleagues, 

On behalf of the Board of Directors and Organising Committee, it gives us great pleasure to invite you to attend the 2025 ACIPC International Conference.  

Sunday 16 – Wednesday 19 November 2025
Hotel Grand Chancellor, Hobart, Tasmania and Online 

The conference theme is “The Circles of Influence: Evidence-based practice and practice-based evidence”.  

By attending the conference, you will learn from national and international experts, network with likeminded professionals, and meet with Australasia’s largest collection of IPC industry suppliers. 

We encourage delegates travelling to Hobart to extend their trip either side of the conference so you can visit the many wonderful sights and attractions the city and Tasmania has to offer. 

More information regarding the conference including invited speakers, social events, and engagement initiatives will be released via the conference website as planning proceeds. 

So, save 16 – 19 November in your calendar now and we look forward to seeing you at the conference. 

Stéphane Bouchoucha
President, Australasian College for Infection Prevention and Control

Chair, Scientific Conference Organising Committee
