At the AGM, member associations received comprehensive updates from all three entities, including insights into the upcoming Paris 2024 from Gilles de la Bourdonnaye, the table tennis sport manager for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Notably, as part of ITTF’s commitment to inclusivity, a significant decision was made to include Portuguese as one of the official languages of the ITTF, alongside Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Russian, and Spanish.

Among the key highlights of the summit was the convening of the ITTF Executive Board, where important decisions were made to steer the federation’s strategic direction. Crucial sessions took place, each offering unique insights and perspectives on the future trajectory of the sport.
