Aggie Cox is a senior healthcare marketing leader and women’s health advocate with over two decades of experience spanning clinical care, medical technology, and executive marketing leadership. She currently serves as Government Affairs & Marketing Director for Australia and New Zealand at Hologic, Inc., a global medical technology company dedicated to advancing women’s health through early detection, diagnosis, and treatment.
With an early career as a Registered Nurse, including frontline experience in emergency and trauma care, Aggie brings a rare clinical lens to health leadership—grounding strategy, communication, and advocacy in real patient needs. This foundation has shaped her work in ensuring women’s health messaging is evidence‑based, accessible, and designed to drive real‑world outcomes.
At Hologic, Aggie has been instrumental in elevating attention to under‑recognised and under‑treated women’s health issues, including preventive screening, sexual and reproductive health, and heavy menstrual bleeding. Her leadership has helped normalise conversations often avoided due to stigma, empowering women to seek information, diagnosis, and care earlier.
Aggie is particularly recognised for reframing marketing as a public health lever, not just a commercial function. Her work connects education, awareness, digital innovation, and clinical credibility to improve health literacy and engagement—especially among women who may delay care due to embarrassment, lack of access, or misinformation.
Aggie regularly contributes to national leadership forums, industry conferences, and community events, including International Women’s Day panels and major marketing and customer experience conferences. Her speaking focuses on the intersection of women’s health, leadership, workplace wellbeing, and purpose‑led growth, as well as resilience and non‑linear career pathways for women in leadership.
Aggie holds a Master of Marketing from Melbourne Business School and is widely respected for bridging commercial performance with social impact. She is passionate about making women’s health visible, discussable, and actionable—in healthcare systems, workplaces, and society at large.

Investments to address health inequities in Prostate Cancer Care
Income, education, geographical location, and discrimination based on ethnicity, race, gender and sexual orientation, are only a fraction of factors that can negatively affect a person’s quality of cancer care. This is defined as the “equity gap” and it’s costing people their lives.
Timed to coincide with World Cancer Day 4th February 2025, Movember announced prostate cancer investment of $5.5 million. Eighteen grants (16 proposals and 2 community development grants) are slated to directly tackle inequities in prostate cancer care. The funding will be over three years with the grants spread across five countries – six in Canada, five in the United Kingdom, three in Australia, three in the United States and one in Ireland – each having a specific focus population and care area.
