The visitor record of more than 85.000 visitors made Munich a hotspot for the international sports sector in the past few days.Focus: Women in sports business This year, ISPO 2017 once again showed the relevance of gender marketing in the sports sector. “Rebellion against pink” is the motto – but it is not just about the color adaptation of the products. The guiding principle also aims at a technical adaptation of features and gadgets to specific requirements for women. Furthermore, a special focus was placed on the central subject of “women in management positions” this year. The Women’s Lounge, guided tours with the motto “Experts4Women” and the panel discussion on women as a target group were just some of the many highlights for women in the program.
