Delegates to Science Meets Parliament 2023 with expertise in biotechnology, human health, genomics, bioinformatics, synthetic biology, agriculture, advanced manufacturing and biosecurity are invited to register their interest in a bonus event the day after SMP2023: ON THE HILL. 

This special event – a powerful collaboration between Science & Technology Australia and Defence – will enable SMP delegates to be connected to exciting opportunities to work on Defence and National Security projects. 

Defence launched the Safeguarding Australia through Biotechnology Response and Engagement (SABRE) Alliance in July 2022. SABRE seeks to bring together biotech capabilities from Australia’s universities, research institutes, manufacturers and small businesses to connect them with the needs of the Defence and national security sectors.

Defence wants the SABRE Alliance to proactively identify and build deep relationships of trust and collaboration with key people in Australia’s research and industry sectors with expertise to help Defence guard against future threats and national security risks.

The SABRE Alliance will help Defence and the national security sector to capitalise on new opportunities emerging from biotech development in Australia’s research and industry sectors to enhance Defence capabilities.
