WELCOME MESSAGE On behalf of the Local Organising Committee we extend a warm welcome to all of you, from every part of the world. I’d like to thank each of you for attending our congress and bringing your expertise to our gathering. You, as organisation leaders have the vision, knowledge, and the experience to help us pave our way into the future. You are truly our greatest asset today and tomorrow, and we could not accomplish what we do without your support and leadership. Throughout this congress, I ask you to stay engaged, keep us proactive and help us shape the future of endoscopy. Our personal respect and thanks goes out to all of you. We would also like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to all our Exhibitors and Sponsors - your support has made a huge difference to the congress and we hope that you will continue to support future SASREG, ISGE and ESGE congresses. We are honoured to have many international speakers at this congress. Prepare to be captivated by high quality presentations of cutting-edge principles in gynaecological endoscopy and related fields. The programme is of an exceptional, international standard and is filled with delightful nuggets of delicately crafted topics and themes certain to appeal to the wide array of gynaecologists practicing in South Africa and internationally. Nestled between mountains and oceans, there is only one way to describe Cape Town, it is a beautiful city! In addition to this, Cape Town offers a wide variety of things to do to suit every taste. Whether it’s adventure thrills, an enlightening visit to the township, a relaxing day tasting wine or visiting Cape Point; Cape Town can tempt you to stay a while. Cape Town promises to provide an excellent platform for scientific debate, clinical exchanges, local and international collaboration opportunities and renewal of friendships. We hope you enjoy our congress.
