Two weeks to go until Palladium Future Forum 2026
Published on 5 November 2026
With just two weeks remaining until Palladium Future Forum 2026, registration is still open for the inaugural event on 19 November at Conrad Seoul.
The Forum will bring together technology developers, industry leaders, research institutions and market experts to explore emerging applications of palladium, their commercial potential and opportunities for industrial adoption. Through presentations, case studies and strategic discussions, participants will examine how innovative palladium-based technologies can address industrial challenges, create new market opportunities and move from research to practical implementation.
The event will welcome participants from across Asia, Europe, the Americas, Africa and Australia, representing technology companies, industrial organisations, leading research institutions and industry associations. Their expertise spans electronics, catalysis, solar and hydrogen energy, biotechnology, water treatment and advanced materials. By connecting those developing new technologies with partners capable of bringing them to market, the Forum aims to foster collaboration and accelerate the industrial adoption of palladium-based applications.
One of the highlights of the programme will be a strategic panel discussion on ‘Palladium partnership: Building a global innovation ecosystem’. The discussion will explore opportunities for international collaboration, the commercialisation of emerging technologies and the role of partnerships between research institutions and industry in developing new applications for palladium.
The panel will feature representatives of several Palladium Global Science Award partner organisations, including the International Platinum Group Metals Association, the Institute of Science Tokyo, the National Institute for Materials Science and catalyst manufacturer Canan Material. The China Precious Metals Industry Committee, General Partner of the Palladium Global Science Award, will also send a delegation to the Forum.
Vivian Shu, Director of Partnerships & Strategic Development, commented: “We are seeing growing interest in palladium not only from the scientific community, but also from technology developers and manufacturers exploring its potential in new applications. Bringing together researchers, technology innovators and business leaders is essential to turning promising developments into practical solutions. This is precisely the kind of international platform we aim to build through Palladium Future Forum, creating opportunities for collaboration and supporting the development of new markets for palladium-based technologies.”
The programme will also feature a project pitch session showcasing the work of the 2026 Palladium Global Science Award winners. Participants will have the opportunity to discover promising scientific developments and applied concepts, explore their potential for practical application and identify opportunities for further technological development.
Palladium Future Forum welcomes new partnerships and proposals for strategic collaboration.
