Spanning 18 countries across four different continents, an exciting list of cities provides sky-high competition for the venue of the ITTF’s next Headquarters, which will enable the centralisation of the overall workforce and drive the continued growth of the sport.

Starting Wednesday 15^th January, the candidate cities have received their request for proposal documentation in order to submit their initial bids between now and Wednesday 15^th April 2020. Within this timeframe, more cities can express an interest to the ITTF and submit their bids too.

The strongest bids will be shortlisted in June with final proposals to be submitted by Tuesday 15^th September 2020. The preferred Home of Table Tennis will subsequently be selected on Wednesday 30^th September 2020.

The ITTF is looking for a thriving new hotspot for table tennis players, business professionals, coaches and officials from across the globe to unite in a single location and collectively take table tennis to the next level among the world’s leading sports.

Indeed, the Home of Table Tennis represents far more than office space within a new Global Headquarters, but also training facilities, a research lab, educational hub, centre for innovation, local community centres and much more!
