Haere mai ki Ōtautahi
Welcome to Christchurch
Join us in a city of innovation, hospitality and natural beauty.
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to the NZSG & NZgNC Annual Scientific Meeting 2026, held at the Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre. We are thrilled to welcome you back to a city that continues to evolve with modern architecture, boutique laneways, and world-class hospitality.
This year’s meeting serves as a premier nexus for clinicians, nurses, dieticians, researchers, and industry partners to converge and share expertise. Under our theme, "Global Frontiers in Gastroenterology," we bring together an outstanding international faculty from the United States, Canada, Singapore, and Australia, offering a truly global perspective on modern practice.
We anticipate a highly educational and social programme and look forward to seeing you all in November. Between sessions, take time to immerse yourself in the rejuvenated urban centre. Explore hidden gems, stunning natural landscapes, and a vibrant café scene perfect for reliving your youth or relaxing with colleagues.
