Let's meet at ISPO 2016

ISPO MUNICH 2015 once again validated its position as the leading international exhibition for the sports industry. It is and remains the world's most important platform for the sports business. Close to 80,000 visiting professionals from more than 100 countries came to ISPO MUNICH from February 5 to 8; this further proves the exhibition's high popularity. ISPO MUNICH is a forum, trend barometer and signal setter for the industry: retailers and manufacturers emphasized how important it is to cooperate on a response to the changing climate conditions. At ISPO MUNICH members of the EU Commission announced plans to launch the first ever Europe-wide Week of Sports thises and set new standards for the world of sports. Klaus Dittrich, Chairman of the Management of Messe München GmbH, explains: "Health & Fitness is an important growth market. Since last year we have dedicated an entire exhibit hall to this trend to take into account the growing health consciousness in our society. This creates new potential for the sports industry. The extremely positive feedback from exhibitors and visitors shows that we have made the right decision."
