With the 46th edition of Naidex fast approaching, it’s time to give you the lowdown on what the event is all about.

The tickets to attend the event are completely free.
But if free tickets, extraordinary suppliers and incredible seminars don’t convince you alone, we’ve compiled below 10 reasons why you must attend this year’s event:
Try before you buy and test the latest mobility products at the Mobility Test Track
This TGA sponsored feature allows visitors to test a large variety of mobility scooters and powerchairs available at the event, as well as test your own. The track includes various artificial off-road terrain, ramps, and obstacles – brimming with activity and excitement as attendees gather to see for themselves the present and future of mobility technology.
State-of-the-art product launches
Be the first to witness the latest product innovations set to hit the industry. The products at the Naidex event are a look into the present and future of the disability and independent living industries, and you could be the first to interact or even purchase, these life-changing designs before they reach the mass market.
Listen to seminars every 45 minutes that’ll leave you feeling uplifted and empowered
There is such a large amount of useful ideas and concepts available in hundreds of seminars. You can get tips, advice and strategies to move forward in whatever direction you want to go.

Interested in paediatric solutions? Follow our Naidex Junior Trail to discover the solutions created specifically with children at heart

It is designed to help highlight those exhibitors who provide the latest innovations and informed professional advice from the creators of the most advanced technology created specifically with children at heart!.
Shop from a selection of industry-altering suppliers
Whilst Naidex has always been much more than a marketplace where visitors can find the latest innovations, that does not mean it doesn’t feature an outstanding range of exhibitors. Each business or association is showcasing their most innovative products, services and solutions – with huge names on site from the likes of Kymco and TGA – where else will you have such an assortment of key suppliers under the same roof?

In that space, Naidex has grown a tightly knitted community consisting of people living with a disability, carers, healthcare professionals, and decision-makers in companies in the disability and independent living industry. They not only attend the event each year but strive to help each other make a difference.
All of the above, for FREE!
