Orsi Academy Orsi Academy is a unique center for surgical innovation and expertise in minimal invasive surgery.

Endorsed by Belgium’s top universities ‘University of Ghent’ and ‘Catholic University of Leuven’, Orsi Academy creates highly validated and accredited (NASCE, CME, EAU, …) training pathways for university students, residents, assistants and established doctors. To give participants the ability to learn from top experts, Orsi Academy has close collaborations with expert hospitals for live case observations.​

Orsi Academy supports and encourages all initiatives that contribute to the development of MIS. Therefore, we offer third parties whose MIS-initiative might benefit from our state-of-the art set-up the possibility to rent (parts of) the infrastructure.

Proud to be a finalist for the VLAIO Social Impact Award. 💚

Congratulations to Moi et Marie on winning the award in recognition of their work to make reusable menstrual products more accessible and tackle period poverty!

It was an honour for Orsi Academy to be nominated alongside Moi et Marie and PathoSense.

This nomination reflects the mission at the heart of our work: translating medical innovation into safer, better patient care. By bringing together hands-on training, technology and international expertise, we help healthcare professionals apply new medical technologies safely and responsibly.

Thank you to VLAIO for recognising our work, and to our team, trainers and partners who make it possible every day.

Congratulations to all the winners and finalists of the VLAIO Awards 2026!

Our colleagues have talents you won’t find in their job descriptions. 💪😅

Last Friday, we put a few of them to the test when Jan De Nul Group brought the Container Cup to Orsi Academy.

Running, cycling, rowing, climbing and catching falling sticks. Some challenges went more smoothly than others. 😉 But encouragement from the sidelines? We had that covered.

A chance to get moving together, enjoy a little friendly competition and spend time with colleagues beyond our daily work.

Swipe to see Team Orsi in action! 📸

Thanks to Jan De Nul NV for bringing the challenge to our doorstep!

Inspiring the next generation 💡

What role could you play in the future of healthcare?

Last week, we opened our doors to second-year Bachelor of Medical Technology students from Arteveldehogeschool and HOGENT, together with their lecturers.

A visit to Orsi Academy connects the classroom with the world of surgical training and innovation. A chance to explore new possibilities and start imagining where their own skills might take them.

Thank you for joining us. We hope you left with fresh inspiration for what comes next!

🏆 Great news! Orsi Academy is nominated for the VLAIO Awards 2026 in the Social Impact Category!

Safer surgery starts long before the operating room.

Every day, we help surgeons and healthcare teams develop the skills they need to use new surgical technologies safely and confidently.

Because the real impact of our work goes far beyond our training centre. It reaches patients around the world. 🌍

This nomination is a wonderful recognition of our team's expertise, dedication and commitment to better, safer patient care. 💙

Thank you, VLAIO for recognising the social impact of surgical education!

🤞 Fingers crossed for 23 October, when the winners will be announced at the FTI Festival in Mechelen!

From surgical robots to giant pandas! 🐼

Last Friday, Team Orsi traded the training centre for a little adventure at Pairi Daiza.

Wild encounters, plenty of laughs and a whole lot of team spirit. 🦒🐘

Sometimes, the best way to connect is to get away from our everyday routines.

Different setting. Same great team. 💙

From classroom learning to hands-on practice, all within one training programme.

WallabyPhenox’s Centre of Excellence workshop at Orsi Academy brought together educational sessions, practical training using flow models and time in our animal lab.

For Maria James, Associate Director of International Training at WallabyPhenox, the experience went beyond the facilities. She highlighted the professional setup and the support from our team throughout the planning and delivery of the workshop.

Here’s how participants rated their experience:

✔ 100% of respondents said the workshop met their expectations
✔ 5/5 average venue rating
✔ 9.5/10 average recommendation score

We’re looking forward to welcoming WallabyPhenox back on 9 and 10 November!

Thank you, Maria and the team, for your continued trust.

What brought Federica to Orsi Academy?

More time at the robotic console, the chance to train on different platforms and room to refine the skills that matter most to her.

Meet our new gynaecology fellow 👋 Federica is especially interested in benign gynaecology and fertility preservation. During her fellowship, she wants to focus on tissue handling and suturing in narrow spaces. She hopes to apply these skills in procedures that preserve patients’ reproductive potential.

What struck her first? The close collaboration between engineers and medical professionals, and the opportunity to train with technology she would rarely have access to in a hospital.

Welcome to Orsi Academy, Federica. We’re looking forward to learning from you too!

The operating room demands more than technical skill.

When circumstances change, how do you stay aware of what’s happening, make decisions under pressure and keep the whole team aligned?

Our one-day NOTSS (Non-Technical Skills for Surgeons) Masterclass puts those questions into practice. Through operative video analysis, discussions and group exercises, you’ll explore situation awareness, decision-making, communication, teamwork and leadership.

You don’t need to be an experienced surgeon to join. Whether you’re a medical student, resident, surgeon or OR team member, this is an opportunity to strengthen skills you’ll use throughout your career.

Learn with Dr. Manoj Kumar, Dr. Gillian Hardman and Prof. Dr. Kenneth Walker.

What’s next in robotic urology? Three trends from ERUS26

At ERUS26 in Padua, Orsi Academy brought live surgery, research, education and new technology into the conversation.

Across three days, our team contributed through three live surgery procedures, more than 20 scientific contributions, work on AI-assisted intraoperative support and participation in the RUBIC innovation challenge.

One contribution in particular showed just how quickly the field is moving: a first-in-human telesurgical robot-assisted radical prostatectomy performed over a low-earth-orbit satellite connection.

From telesurgery and single-port systems to artificial intelligence moving into the operating room, ERUS26 offered a clear look at where robotic urology is heading next. For us, these developments also raise an important question: how do we make sure surgical training keeps pace with the technology?

We brought together the key moments, research and insights from Padua in our ERUS26 recap.
