Sponsors & Partners

We are deeply grateful to our sponsors and partners for their support in making NoWEM possible. Thanks to the following sponsors for their support of NoWEMxFemInEM!

FEMINEM

FemInEM is a global phenomenon! It was established in 2015 to connect women across emergency medicine, no matter where they lived. Since then it’s has flourished into an unstoppable and multi-faceted force. FeminEM has a website, serving as a centralised open access resource for a multitude of policies that protect working women, a regular podcast and blog, extremely successful conferences  and a fantastic, never-before-done, speakers bureau, as a practical solution to female underrepresentation at conferences.

We consult and advise campaigns on their screen strategy, and also create, develop and produce content which has greatest impact and reaches the widest audiences. Our team are experienced in major national campaigns, commercial and free-to-air television, through to corporate niche videos for internal use. Whatever the organisation, or the platform, we incorporate social change into everything we do. As a woman-lead business, we are proud to support NoWEM in drawing together a community that embraces, empowers and celebrates women in Emergency Medicine.

CAMPBELLTOWN AND CAMDEN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT

Campbelltown Emergency Department and Campbelltown Hospital are proud to sponsor this combined NoWEM and FemInEM evening in Sydney. It is with great pride that we saw the NoWEM founders come together at Campbelltown and commence Australia’s first Emergency Women’s Network. Campbelltown Emergency is a thriving department that is meeting the demand of an enormous and growing population in South West Sydney. We are committed to the ideas of best practice and providing for the special needs of the incredibly diverse patient group that attends our department. We are currently building a new ED and Hospital and, in addition to our core clinical services, we are exploring all our Models of Care to provide excellence in End of Life Care, Procedural sedation, POCUS, Short Stay Medicine, and Paediatrics.

Boyd Migration and Legal

Boyd Migration & Legal is a Sydney-based law firm. We practise Australian immigration law. We specialise in helping businesses and individuals with Australian visa applications (including skilled, business and family) and other complex Australian immigration processes. We also practise in professional negligence and contractual disputes, and have a network of trusted partners in commercial, property and family law.  We believe ventures such as NoWEM are critical to attain sustainable and significant improvements in the unacceptably low levels of women in leadership.

Experien Insurance Services

Experien Insurance Services helps hundreds of female doctors with their life and disability insurance and medical indemnity insurance - as their insurance broker.   We were one of the first to note that in Australia, women did not seem to enjoy lower medical indemnity insurance premiums, yet it is known they have a lower risk of claim. So we pushed hard for this and now see that insurers such as Tego and others are now giving discounts to women. Whether its for this, for female specific trauma insurance claims, or for events like this, we are proud to support women in medicine and recognise the important role they play in this sector.

The Australian institute of ultrasound

The Australian Institute of Ultrasound (AIU) is proud to be sponsoring NOWEM. For over 20 years AIU has been Australia’s premier ultrasound training institute providing hands on practical training in a caring and supportive environment. 

“I come from a family of five generations of women leaders who have made significant breakthroughs in advancing womens’ careers in medicine, science, and business. We are passionate about raising the next generation of women to live in a world where their voice is respected.”
