Munich, 30 November 2023 – “New Perspectives on Sports”: with new concepts, new ideas and full halls, the global platform for the sports business continues to grow. Welcoming a significant increase in exhibitors and global participation, ISPO Munich 2023 was the hotspot for the international sports business community from 28 to 30 November. The comprehensive program on ten stages, a variety of networking formats and a wide range of curated exhibitions and activities offered exhibitors, trade show visitors and the international sports community plenty of opportunities to gather information, be inspired and expand their networks. ISPO Munich remains the place to be and is developing into a global platform for the sports business.
With over 2,400 exhibitors and a consistently high level of visitors, ISPO Munich 2023 came to an end today. “This year, we were once again able to make it clear that sport in its full spectrum is much more than just exercise, equipment or entertainment. Sport is not only one of the fastest growing, most diverse and most international sectors of the economy, but also an important contributor to society. In addition, sport is an important driver of innovation when it comes to topics such as materials, digitalisation, health and sustainability.” says Tobias Gröber, Head of ISPO Group. “Just as the sports industry is constantly evolving, we too are continually integrating new formats such as masterclasses, innovation labs, conferences and pioneering partnerships such as those with the German Sustainability Award, Laureus, Yunus Sports Hub and Change Now – and we’re doing all this without forgetting our roots in the sporting goods industry.”
ISPO Munich has set itself the goal of bundling the emotional power of sport. That is why this year’s trade show was once again the place to be and provided an ideal stage for new trends, innovative products and solutions. The statistics prove that ISPO Munich is once again viewed as a global platform for the entire industry, retailers and athletes. “I am happy because the transformation of ISPO Munich is in full swing. We are delighted that our trade show is also being recognised worldwide as the place to be for the sports industry. This is reflected in the high level of interest shown by foreign exhibitors and in the enthusiasm of visitors and speakers from all over the world,” says Stefan Rummel, CEO of Messe München Group, who likewise summarises the event positively.
