Starting off as the National Tribology Conference in 2009 (NTC2009) and the Regional Tribology Conference in 2011 (RTC2011), the conference was renamed as the Malaysian International Tribology Conference in 2013 to give a more global image. Malaysian Tribology Society (MYTRIBOS) is ever committed  to continuously organize an international conference in the effort to advance tribology for a more sustainable world. In 2018, MYTRIBOS was organized ASIATRIB 2018 in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia.

In this coming 2024, once again, MYTRIBOS is geared to organize The 4^th Malaysian International Tribology Conference (MITC2024). The MITC2024 is also supported by the Asian Tribology Council (ATC) and International Tribology Council (ITC). The conference will be held on 2 - 3 September 2024 at Kota Kinabalu, Borneo Island, Sabah.

The objective of MITC2024 is for the scientists, scholars, engineers and students from universities, research institutions and industries all around the world to present findings of ongoing research activities, and hence foster research collaborations between the universities and the industries. The other objective is to introduce young tribologists in the scientific field of tribology through keynote lectures and presentations, to offer mentoring through senior scientists, and to foster the building of networks through the informal style of the event. The 2024 theme "Tribology Odyssey: Navigating the Frictionless Future" seems to describe a journey or exploration into the field of tribology with the aim of understanding and applying its principles to create a future that is characterized by reduced friction, improved efficiency, and their potential impact on various industries and aspects of life.
