Dear Colleagues,

It is our great pleasure to welcome you to KINGCA WEEK 2026, hosted by the Korean Gastric Cancer Association (KGCA). We look forward to gathering with you in Seoul from September 17 to 19, 2026, at Lotte Hotel Seoul, Korea.

Over the years, KINGCA WEEK has grown into a trusted international forum where clinicians, researchers, and allied health professionals come together to exchange ideas and advance the field of gastric cancer.

This conference will keep you up to date with the latest developments and provide valuable opportunities to learn from the extensive experience and expertise of our distinguished faculty, as well as from fellow delegates dedicated to gastric cancer care and research.
This year’s meeting holds special significance as it marks the 30th anniversary of the founding of the Korean Gastric Cancer Association.

Under the slogan “30 Years of Excellence: Challenging the Limits of Gastric Cancer Cure.” we celebrate three decades of outstanding achievements by KGCA while also looking ahead to the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. KINGCA WEEK 2026 is designed not only to share knowledge, but also to strengthen our community by exploring new possibilities and asking better, more forward-looking questions.

We very much look forward to welcoming you in Seoul.
