ISPO

About ISPO

ISPO is one of the world's best-known trade events for the sporting goods, outdoor and winter sports industries. Founded in Munich in 1970, the show now takes place at RAI Amsterdam with a refined concept: an earlier autumn date aligned with global buying cycles, a more affordable format for exhibitors and a stronger focus on international business. ISPO brings together brands, manufacturers, material and technology suppliers, retailers and investors along the entire value chain, and serves as a guide for the start of the ordering season.

Event Highlights

ISPO combines a focused expo with the ISPO Leaders' Summit, an exclusive forum for senior executives, policymakers and changemakers from across the sports ecosystem. A global hosted buyer programme brings leading retailers and brands to the show floor, international pavilions present suppliers from many countries, and the ISPO Excellence Awards recognise outstanding products. The International Running Expo takes place alongside, and the content programme is built around participation, sustainability and fair trade.
