The Internationale Fachmesse für Sportartikel und Sportmode, more commonly referred to as ISPO, is the world's largest trade fair for sporting goods and sportswear.
Since its inception in 1970, the ISPO takes place once a year (end of January or early February) at Neue Messe München where the following categories are being displayed: Outdoor, Skiing, Boarding, Running, Fitness, Sportswear, Beachwear, Teamsports, Soccer, Nordic Sports, Biking, Racket, Triathlon, and Kids.
ISPO Munich is part of the ISPO Family which also includes other tarde fairs such as ISPO BIKE (previously Bike EXPO), ISPO BEIJING and the service providers ISPO JOBS and ISPO CONNECT.
Each year, the ISPO awards the ISPO BrandNew to Start-Up companies in the sport industry that present especially innovative business models or products.
