13th Global Tire Tech Forum (GTTF 2026), organized by China Rubber Industry Association, will be held from June 23 to 26, 2026 in Qingdao, China. With the theme of ‘Eco-friendly and Innovative Development’, this forum endeavors to gather the collective wisdom and strength of the global tire industry. It aims to jointly explore the cutting-edge trends and map out innovative paths for the industry’s development, serving as a high-end platform for technological exchanges and ideological integration.
Over the past twelve editions, the forum has cumulatively attracted nearly 400 speakers from 18 countries and regions to share their insights. It has received strong support from associations of major tire-producing countries including the EU, the United States, South Korea, Japan and India, successfully capturing wide attention from upstream and downstream tire enterprises, universities, government agencies and industry associations worldwide. The forum has established significant influence in the global tire community and become an important bridge connecting all stakeholders in the industry.
To further enrich the forum's content and promote academic exchanges and technological innovation, we are now launching a call-for-papers campaign aligned with the forum's theme. Details are as follows:
