Sponsorship

We would like to extend our warmest regards and appreciation to all of our current and previous sponsors. The achievements of UNSW OptomSoc over the years were only made possible through these generous contributions. Your continued contribution is extremely valuable.

Why become a sponsor?

Sponsor the Future Leaders of Optometry

  • UNSW is one of the leading universities in the world and offers the #1 undergraduate Optometry program in Australia. This places companies in a unique position to create exposure and influence some of the youngest optometrists pioneering the future of Australian optometry.
  • UNSW ranks #3 in Oceania, #2 in Australia, and #7 in the world for Optometry. This is an unparalleled achievement that reflects the quality of UNSW Optometry graduates in terms of capability, prestige, and employment throughout all year levels. (1)
  • UNSW School of Vision Science is ranked #2 worldwide for optometry research, and #1 institution in the world for contact lens research. (2)
  • UNSW is your company’s gateway to accessing the brightest and best optometric minds in NSW.
  • UNSW Optometry and Vision Science have now merged into the Faculty of Medicine, making large intra-faculty exposure to Medicine, Exercise Physiology, and other health students possible, increasing brand awareness and recognisability to a larger, younger, demographic.

Bridge the Gap between UNSW students and industry

  • Sponsors are acknowledged as pivotal components for developing our optometry students as both competent dispensers and optometrists with the opportunity to nurture students’ perspectives in conjunction with the exceptional teaching prowess of UNSW.
  • Current clinicians and academic staff at UNSW are exposed to sponsors through social media, students, and word of mouth with companies having the potential to update and showcase new products or technologies to the school and key players in the field of optometry.
  • Introduction of the latest ophthalmic technology from phoropters, autorefractors, and slit lamps with exposure to the brightest upcoming optometrists and the opportunity to interact and contact UNSW School of Optometry and Vision Science through UNSW OptomSoc.

Gain Recognition as a critical contributor to future development

  • Being a sponsor is much more than displaying your company’s logo, messages, and products at our events. Sponsorship benefits include increased awareness of your company and widespread exposure throughout the UNSW OptomSoc community.
