Partner with Lipedema World Congress III

The Lipedema World Congress (LWC) III offers a unique opportunity to align your organization with a landmark event in the global lipedema calendar.

Taking place from 11–14 November 2027 at the Crown Conference Centre, Melbourne, this is the first Lipedema World Congress to be held outside Europe,and the first to run alongside a dedicated patient conference.

This dual reach makes the 2027 Congress an ideal platform for organizations committed to education, research, innovation, and patient-centred solutions in lipedema.

By partnering with the Congress, you’ll connect with two complementary audiences

An international community of clinicians, researchers, and health professionals focused on advancing lipedema science and care
A highly engaged patient and consumer community attending the co-located Lipoedema Australia Conference

Why Melbourne? Why now?

Melbourne is a fitting location for this next chapter in the lipedema journey.

The city is home to significant lipedema research, including work by the O’Brien Department at St Vincent’s Institute of Medical Research, which has advanced understanding of the biological mechanisms of lipedema and identified potential targets for future therapies.

The 2027 Congress will bring together professionals, researchers, patient representatives, and industry partners from Australia, New Zealand, the Asia-Pacific region, and around the globe.

As the field of lipedema science “comes of age”, your support will help drive education, collaboration, and meaningful dialogue between stakeholders.
