AusHealth
AusHealth is a self-funded medical research charity with headquarters in Adelaide.
It was established in 1985 (then called Medvet) as the research commercialisation arm of the Royal Adelaide Hospital. Today, its sole shareholder is the Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN).
Since its inception, AusHealth has contributed more than $50 million to Australian led research in disease therapies, AI-powered clinical solutions and novel healthcare technologies. As well as funding researchers, it dedicates itself to ‘translating’ great ideas into investment-ready entities, aiming to retain the commercial benefits of Australian ideas and grow the nation’s health tech sector.
AusHealth has two commercial arms: AusHealth Hospitals (which provides revenue management services to the healthcare sector); and AusHealth Diagnostics (Australia’s largest provider of workplace drug and alcohol testing). The organisation employs more than 300 people, delivering services across all states and territories.
All proceeds from these commercial enterprises go towards more than a dozen medical research endeavours.
These projects are collectively managed by AusHealth Ventures, which operates out of a new research hub called The Accelerator, where entrepreneurs, innovators and health tech specialists collaborate. The bricks and mortar hub is located in Underdale, Adelaide; it opened in 2024.
