Anne O’Neill has transformed NSW’s health and medical research sector into a billion-dollar innovation engine for Australia and an international investment hub.
She was architect of the phenomenally successful Medical Devices Fund and established a Commercialisation Training Program to fill a crucial gap in research translation.
Her groundbreaking efforts set the blueprint for collaboration between government and industry to drive innovation and commercialisation. Ms O’Neill has built critical capacity in Australia’s entrepreneurship ecosystem through development programs and policies that support early-stage researchers, founders, entrepreneurs and policymakers. After 30 years in NSW public service, she has recently joined ANDHealth, Australia’s leading provider of commercialisation support to evidence-based digital and connected health technologies. In her role in this female-founded and female-led organisation, she will continue to champion diversity as a mentor for women and historically underrepresented groups in STEM and healthcare.
