GTC2025 Global Traffic Conference (Shanghai)

The GTC2025 Global Traffic Conference (Shanghai) will be grandly held from November 5 to 6, 2025, at the H3 Pavilion (North) of the Shanghai Expo Exhibition Center. This year’s exhibition will comprehensively cover popular sectors including gaming, short dramas, AI, and DTC brands, aiming to create an industry event that integrates resource display, high-level dialogues, precise connections, and trend insights. As one of the most influential top-level events in the cross-border outbound sector, the GTC2025 will leverage the robust cross-border outbound momentum and digital energy of the Yangtze River Delta region to gather the most comprehensive domestic and international resources. Over a hundred quality service providers from marketing promotion, cross-border payment, basic services, and data monitoring will join together to bring a brand-new experience for participating companies, guests, and attendees.

This conference has been held for seven consecutive years, gaining influence from nearly 30 provinces and cities in China to over 20 countries abroad, cumulatively serving more than a thousand companies. As the tenth Global Traffic Conference organized by White Whale Outbound, this event anticipates over 30 million online exposure, more than 15,000 offline attendees, 129 participating companies, and an exhibition area of 8,500㎡, truly achieving the transformation from "traffic aggregation" to "ecosystem empowerment," and helping companies step out of isolated struggles to embed into the global outbound resource network.

The conference will eschew theoretical discussions; all forums and connection sessions will focus on the core pain points of current international expansion. Keynote sessions will include Global Games Outbound Summit, AI+ Outbound Summit, Short Drama Outbound Summit, and the Opening Ceremony Summit, each focusing on practical topics such as hybrid monetization, localization operations, emerging market policies, AIGC implementation practices, paid conversion and copyright compliance for short dramas, and independent site operations.

Additionally, special sub-venues will host short drama outbound matchmaking events and global game matchmaking sessions, providing direct negotiation opportunities for exhibitors with clients and resources with projects, and planning the AI technology development forum and specialized sessions for DTC brand outbound to promote precise connections within niche industries. A closed-door dinner and the Whale Call Awards Ceremony will also take place, offering premium networking opportunities while witnessing the prestige of leading outbound enterprises and industry leaders.
