Congratulations to Business Events Tasmania Ambassador Dorothy Roberts, for her part in the success of the recent Australian Conference on Neurodevelopmental Disorders. The 2019 conference saw 382 national and International delegates visit Launceston across 3 days in September.

“Hosting ACND has launched Launceston and Tasmania into the global community researching underdevelopmental disorders. The relational connections formed at conference are foundational to future work.”

As the first Australian based conference, the event was a resounding success! The conference resulted in the discovery that Launceston has the most concentrated knowledge-base on ADHD, Executive Functions and the implications for life outcomes in Australia.

Dorothy has spoken of the benefits hosting the conference had on both Launceston and Tasmania, “Hosting ACND has launched Launceston and Tasmania into the global community researching underdevelopmental disorders. The relational connections formed at conference are foundational to future work.”
