Does your organisation value consumer partnership in research?
This is your invitation to join with us to help champion
innovation and excellence in consumer partnership and experience
in all forms of Australian health and medical research.
We are excited to invite you to become an inaugural sponsor of AccessCR’s Australian Consumer Partnerships in Research 2025 Awards (#CPIR2025Awards).
The CPIR 2025 Awards will bring national recognition to the excellence we know exists but is often overlooked — both locally and internationally — in how research partners with a diversity of consumers in diverse ways. This event will highlight what a gold-class experience looks like for research participants and consumer partners, uniquely defining "excellence" from the consumer’s perspective.
This event is more than a celebration; it’s a call to action. By spotlighting best practices, we aim to inspire researchers, organisations, and consumer advocates to reach new heights in their collaborations. Held during National Science Week, the awards will contribute to the national conversation about the value of consumer partnerships in health and medical research.
This is a chance to align your organisation with a pioneering event, one that honours innovation and excellence in consumer partnerships while setting a benchmark for the future.
How you can help.
We understand that no matter how enthusiastic organisations may be about consumer partnership and experience in research, their capacity to support these Awards will vary. As such, we have developed a range of sponsorship levels for every budget (from $0 to $11,000) that will both help us deliver the Awards, and recognise organisations committed to supporting and elevating consumer partnership in research.

We encourage you to review the following Sponsorship documents to learn more about the benefits to each of the Sponsorship levels.
