The initiative for Internationally Valid Licenses for Surgeons Initiated from Sweden in 2010, the Surgicon Project has gathered a large number of leading surgeons worldwide, from different surgical specialties. This is in itself a unique accomplishment, as surgeons strictly work and communicate in their own pipelines. But the question about how to form a new skilled surgeon from a medical student – who mostly has read books for many years – showed to be of common interest. The baseline idea to find common grounds for surgical training and examinations attracted many surgical leaders. Names like Pr Patricia J. Numann, MD FACS, Past President, American College of Surgeons, Pr Carlos A. Pellegrini, MD, FACS, FRCSI (Hon), Past-President Am Coll of Surgeons, Pr Richard Reznick MD, Dean, Queen’s University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Pr Spencer Beasley, Counselor and Deputy Censor-in-Chief RACS, New Zealand, Pr Philip J Crowe, MB BS, DPhil, Grad DipHEd, FRCSC, FRACS, UNSW, Sydney, Australia, Pr Guy Maddern, MBBS PhD MS MD FRACS, RP Jepson Professor of Surgery, Adelaide, Australia, Pr Shekhar Kumta, Orthopedic Surgeon, Director of the Teaching & Learning Resource Center, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, China, Pr Leon Snyman, MBChB, MPraxMed Mmed, FCOG, Department Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Pretoria, South Africa, and many others have been seen on the podium, in work groups and in the audience. In the board we find some of the most famous scientific researchers in the field, Prem Richard M Satava, USA, Pr Anthony G Gallagher, Ireland, and Dr Richard L Angelo, USA.
