1. The company aims to partner with academic institutions, where each institution would have its own channel with medical lectures or surgical videos of different areas.
2. GIBLIB will enable the surgeons to watch live surgeries with either a 360-degree or a split-screen view of procedures.
3. Mr. Conyer said the goal of the startup is to connect the global community of surgeons who wish to communicate with each but otherwise lack the ability to do so.
4. Mr. Conyer got the idea for GIBLIB while working in the sales department at Intuitive Surgical, a Sunnyvale, Calif.-based medical company that manufactures robotics surgical systems.
5. The beta version of GIBLIB will be out by the end of April.
