Dear Colleagues and Esteemed Guests,

On behalf of the Korean Knee Society, it is my great honor and privilege to welcome you to the International Congress of the Korean Knee Society (ICKKS) 2026, a landmark event celebrating the 42nd anniversary of our society.

 

Since its establishment in 1983, the Korean Knee Society has been dedicated to advancing the field of orthopaedic knee surgery by fostering innovation, excellence in research, education, and clinical practice. Over the past four decades, we have grown together as a strong and dynamic community, continuously striving to improve patient care and contribute to the global progress of orthopaedic science.

 

To commemorate this significant milestone, we are proud to host ICKKS 2026, an international conference organized by the Korean Knee Society. This congress will serve as a vibrant platform for sharing the latest research, exchanging knowledge, and fostering global collaborations in the field of orthopaedic knee surgery. We are pleased to welcome distinguished experts, leading researchers, and dedicated clinicians from across the world to join us in this meaningful event.

 

The program of ICKKS 2026 will feature an inspiring range of keynote lectures, scientific sessions, and networking opportunities designed to engage, connect, and energize participants. We believe this congress will not only honor our past achievements but also pave the way for future advancements in orthopaedic knee surgery. Furthermore, it offers a wonderful opportunity to experience Korea’s rich culture and warm hospitality, creating memories to cherish long after the congress concludes.

 

I extend my deepest gratitude to all organizing committee members, invited speakers, and participants whose dedication and contributions are bringing this congress to life. Your efforts ensure that ICKKS 2026 will be a truly memorable and impactful event.

 

We look forward to welcoming you to Incheon, a beautiful harbor city near Seoul, and to sharing together in a remarkable occasion that celebrates the past, embraces the present, and shapes the future of orthopaedic knee surgery.

 

Thank you, and we eagerly anticipate your participation in ICKKS 2026.
