Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand

What Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand does

The Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand (HSANZ) is a non-profit professional medical society founded in 1998 and headquartered at 145 Macquarie Street in Sydney, NSW, with five employees supporting its operations. Its stated purpose is to lead, communicate, and support excellence in haematology through independent education, professional development, and advocacy for clinicians, nurses, scientists, and researchers working in blood disorders and related conditions across Australia and New Zealand.

HSANZ delivers a portfolio of products and services centered on its membership program: specialized sub-brands (Nurses Group, Early Career Group, Myeloma M-SPN), an annual Blood conference, state branch events across VIC, WA, NSW, QLD, and SA, PhD scholarships and clinical fellowships, and clinical resources including the AML Clinical Guideline and Position Papers. The society operates on a Wild Apricot-powered membership portal with Google, Microsoft, and Apple OAuth authentication, supplemented by Typeform for contact forms. Its HSANZ 2030 Strategy defines four pillars: Workforce & Career, Partnerships & Collaborations, Advocacy, and Education.

The revenue model is dual-stranded: recurring annual membership fees from haematology professionals and tax-deductible donations, with 100% of donations directed toward scholarships, fellowships, and grants. The go-to-market is community-led, relying on digital channels (website, email newsletters), regional branch events, the annual Blood conference, and a Positions Vacant job board. Content partnerships with LifeBlood, BloodSafe, EviQ, and clinical institutions (Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Cancer Care Associates, Mid North Coast Cancer Institute) extend the society's reach, while governance is handled by an elected Council with 2025-2027 leadership including President Adam Bryant and incoming subcommittee chairs.

Core offering

The Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand (HSANZ) is a professional medical society that serves haematology professionals across Australia and New Zealand. Its core offering is a membership-based program that provides members with access to professional events (notably the annual BLOOD conference), clinical practice guidelines (such as the AML clinical guideline), position papers, a members' portal, and specialised groups including the HSANZ Nurses Group and HSANZ Early Career Group. The society also administers research funding programs including PhD scholarships and clinical fellowships.

Product overview

HSANZ operates as a professional medical society offering a unified membership platform rather than a multi-module software product. The core offering centers on membership services that provide access to clinical resources, education, professional development events, scholarships and fellowships, clinical guidelines (including AML guidelines and position papers), and advocacy. The society maintains specialized sub-brands for nurses (HSANZ Nurses Group) and early career professionals (HSANZ Early Career Group), each with dedicated resources, newsletters, and events. The primary member-facing platform is the Wild Apricot-powered member portal and website, with the annual Blood Conference as the flagship event.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• American Society of Hematology (ASH): ASH is the largest global haematology professional society, offering membership, education, clinical guidelines, and the flagship ASH Annual Meeting. It is comparable to HSANZ as the dominant international counterpart, but with vastly greater scale and broader geographic reach.
• Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia (RCPA): RCPA is the ANZ professional college overseeing pathology training, including haematology. Comparable to HSANZ in serving ANZ pathology and haematology professionals, but at a broader specialty-college level with credentialing authority.
• European Hematology Association (EHA): EHA is the leading European haematology professional society serving clinicians and researchers across Europe. Comparable to HSANZ through membership services, scientific congresses (EHA Congress), and clinical education programs, but at larger European scale.

Direct peers

• Australasian Leukaemia & Lymphoma Group (ALLG): ALLG is the ANZ clinical trials cooperative group for haematological malignancies. Comparable to HSANZ through its ANZ haematology research focus, though more specialized in clinical trials than general professional membership.
• Medical Oncology Group of Australia (MOGA): MOGA is the ANZ professional society for medical oncologists. Comparable to HSANZ through parallel professional society structure, annual scientific meetings, and clinical guidelines in adjacent oncology disciplines within the same geography.
• British Society for Haematology (BSH): BSH is the UK-based professional society for haematologists, offering membership, clinical guidelines, and an annual scientific meeting. Closely comparable to HSANZ in structure, mission, and activities, with a national rather than trans-Tasman focus.
• Thrombosis and Haemostasis Society of Australia and New Zealand (THANZ): THANZ is the ANZ sister society focused on thrombosis and haemostasis, sharing geographic territory with HSANZ. Highly comparable as a small membership-based haematology specialty society with conferences and clinical guidelines in the same region.

Others

• Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand Nurses Group: This is HSANZ's own Nurses Group sub-brand. Mentioned to highlight direct internal parallels with international bodies such as the UK Haemato-Oncology Nursing Forum, which represent nurses in haematology practice.
