National Surrogacy & Donor Conception Conference – Melbourne 2025

Are you considering building your family through surrogacy or egg donation? Growing Families is hosting Australia’s annual two-day conference this July in Melbourne, designed to guide you with real-world insights and expert advice.

This unique event is the only one in Australia curated by a committee of local parents and surrogates, making it a truly supportive and authentic space to learn and connect.

Day One – Domestic Surrogacy (Saturday, 26 July 2025)
The first day focuses on the Australian surrogacy landscape. You’ll hear firsthand stories from surrogates, donors and parents, and gain practical knowledge on the medical, legal, and emotional aspects of the process. You’ll also learn how to build strong, respectful relationships along the way.

Day Two – International Surrogacy (Sunday, 27 July 2025)
The second day shifts the focus to international options in the United States, Canada, Colombia and Mexico. Experts will unpack the legal frameworks, costs, and timelines, while families who’ve pursued international surrogacy share their personal journeys to parenthood.

• Free drinks (wine, beer & soft drinks) at the Saturday networking session from 5:30 PM.
