The major gathering
for sports industry stakeholders
Sport today plays a central role in society: public health, social inclusion, personal performance and workplace well‑being, economic attractiveness, tourism, and urban development.
At the same time, practices are evolving, economic models are shifting, and sports infrastructures must adapt to new requirements.
In response to these transformations, local authorities, businesses, and sports organizations must work together to build solutions that will foster sports participation that is accessible, sustainable, inclusive, and high‑performing.
The Sports and Parasports Exhibition was created to bring these stakeholders together and to foster cooperation between local territories and the sports industry, helping to jointly develop sports participation across all fields and environments.

A sector undergoing major transformation
The world of sports is undergoing profound changes.
Sports practices are diversifying and opening up to new audiences. Outdoor activities, informal sports, and health‑ and well‑being‑focused approaches are growing rapidly.
At the same time, sports infrastructures must address new challenges: renovating an aging facilities network, improving energy efficiency, ensuring versatile uses, and adapting to evolving practices and climate conditions.
Technological innovations — sport‑tech, connected equipment, and data — as well as new forms of practice are also transforming services and the overall sports experience.
In the face of these shifts, public and private stakeholders must innovate to design, finance, and operate the sports facilities and services of tomorrow.
