ADIA's Strategic Affiliations

As the peak business organisation representing suppliers of products and services to dental professionals, the Australian Dental Industry Association (ADIA) recognises the importance of collaboration. To this end, ADIA maintains affiliation with key umbrella organisations representing the interest of employers, product manufacturers and exporters.

A key role for ADIA is to foster the development of a global marketplace where manufacturers of quality dental products are free to export to markets where standards for healthcare products ensure public health and safety, while at the same time freeing industry from any unnecessary regulatory burden. To this end, ADIA supports two key organisations that focus on strengthening international trade.

• American Chamber of Commerce in Australia (AmCham)
• Australia China Business Council (ACBC)

As can be expected for an organisation representing manufacturers and suppliers of dental product, ADIA maintains international affiliations with key international bodies in the sector that are set out below:

• Association of International Dental Manufacturers (IDM)
• FDI World Dental Federation
• US National Association of Dental Laboratories (NADL)

The ability of ADIA to deliver high-quality events including ADX Exhibitions is due in no small part to our interaction with the bodies that provide industry leadership for the meetings, events and exhibition area.

• Exhibitions & Events Association of Australasia (EEAA)
• International Association of Exhibitions and Events (IEAA)

Its ADIA's affiliation with these organisations that enables the Association to be at the forefront of not only the public policy debate, but in the delivery of initiatives that allow member businesses to grow, create jobs and operate sustainably.
