How Gastro Learning Turned Hybrid Medical Conferences into a Seamless Global Education Platform

The Challenge

For more than 20 years, Gastro Learning has been at the forefront of gastroenterology education, delivering live endoscopy courses that connect clinicians and showcase the latest advances in the field. Their flagship annual conference, London Live Endoscopy (LLE), is a cornerstone event in the global endoscopy community.

Coming out of COVID, Gastro Learning needed to ensure LLE remained a world-class hybrid experience: technically flawless, globally accessible, and visually aligned with their brand. Beyond LLE, they also required support for highly specialised sessions, such as the Oesophageal Neoplasia Masterclass (ONM) and their contribution to the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) Annual Congress Days 2023. Each event brought its own complexity — from live surgical broadcasts across multiple countries to virtual masterclasses combining pre-recorded and live content. 

What They Needed

Gastro Learning’s priorities were clear:

• Technical assurance for high-stakes medical demonstrations.
• Hybrid integration of in-person and virtual audiences.
• Multi-location live streaming across international sites.
• Consistent branding and stage design to reinforce credibility.
• On-demand access to extend the reach of live education globally.

Our Approach

We built a tailored system of delivery to meet these needs:

• London Live Endoscopy (LLE): Conducted a full site audit, planned all technical infrastructure, and built a sustainable, branded stage. Delivered live panels, pre-recorded demonstrations, and two days of live surgical content via seamless vision mixing and streaming. Edited an on-demand version viewed in over 90 countries.
• Oesophageal Neoplasia Masterclass (ONM): Broadcast from our London studio, combining in-person lecturers, remote guest speakers, and pre-recorded content into one coherent live stream.
• ESGE Annual Congress Days 2023: Managed simultaneous live broadcasts from London, Dublin, and Hamburg — including switching between three operating theatres in real time, streaming from endoscopic cameras, coordinating international comms, and running live Q&A across three countries.

The Results

• Global reach: On-demand LLE content viewed in over 90 countries worldwide.
• Seamless complexity: Flawless delivery across three international sites for ESGE 2023.
• Credibility reinforced: Gastro Learning strengthened its position as a global leader in gastroenterology education.
• Ongoing partnership: Following these successes, Gastro Learning continues to entrust Bombora with its most complex medical broadcasts.

The Takeaway

For Gastro Learning, the challenge wasn’t simply delivering content — it was protecting credibility and trust in a highly specialist, global field. By combining medical-grade technical delivery with hybrid accessibility, Bombora helped turn complex events into smooth, professional experiences that elevated both the content and the brand.

What This Means For You

If you’re delivering mission-critical or specialist events — whether medical, technical, or professional — credibility rests on execution. Audiences won’t forgive failure in high-stakes environments. With Bombora, you can rely on broadcast-quality hybrid and virtual delivery that makes even the most complex events look seamless, trustworthy, and global.
