join the smart strokes community to learn and engage at this inclusive conference.

Smart Strokes warmly invites you to the annual Smart Strokes Conference being held at Newcastle City hall.

Smart Strokes is a large, not-for-profit conference that aims to deliver a distinct learning opportunity and networking platform. Smart Strokes conferences are uniquely inter-professional, attracting nurses, allied health professionals, researchers, basic scientists, Aboriginal health workers and those with lived experience of stroke.

The 2025 conference will include keynote presentations from renowned international and national speakers, a scientific program based on peer-reviewed abstracts as well as practical workshops.

The conference will be a fantastic networking opportunity to exchange ideas with our keynote speakers, fellow delegates and exhibitors presenting new industry trends and products in stroke care.

The theme for 2025 is "Achieving excellence through Empowered Voices and Collaboration". A theme relevant to stroke clinicians and those with lived experience, as we all strive to improve outcomes for those at risk of, or directly affected, by stroke.

We look forward to seeing you at Smart Strokes 2025.
