Neo Bionica Launch 2021
The opening of new manufacturing facility Neo-Bionica on 28 September 2021 sees the beginning of a new era in medical device development capability in Victoria.
The first facility in Australia with the bioengineering expertise and technology needed to create medical devices for clinical trials.
A joint initiative of the Bionics Institute and the University of Melbourne, the state-of-the-art laboratory is located at St Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne. The Victorian Government is contributing $4 million to this initiative to support the fit out of Neo-Bionica with essential equipment; provide funding for applied research jobs; and support a voucher program to help industry start-ups commercialise medical prototypes.
