EuropeActive’s vision is to be the leading European voice for the fitness and physical activity sector to get more people, more active, more often. We aim to achieve this vision by arranging key industry events to share ideas and to help inspire better business and entrepreneurship. After FIBO announced that they will not run as a live event as hoped, but as an all-digital event for 2020, we have adapted our plans around these now-virtual FIBO days.
After a series of very successful webinars the EuropeActive team has come together to create a new way of sharing information and inspiration from September 2020 onwards: a podcast. Titled the Active Podcast, there will be new episodes once every two weeks. The podcast will be available for members only, though the first introductory episode has been launched today and is accessible to all.
The 6th edition of the #BeActive campaign (2020 European Week of Sport) was launched during the Olympic Day on June 23rd. The Week promotes active lifestyles through a variety of events around Europe organised by the National Coordinating Bodies and Partners, including EuropeActive. The Week’s mission is to encourage Europeans to improve their physical and mental well-being, enrich their communities and empower themselves to be more active on a regular basis.
EuropeActive representatives joined the two-day European Week of Sport Key Players Webinar on 9th and 10th June 2020. National coordinators and partners of the European Week of Sport discussed the different communication strategies and shared best practices for the upcoming campaign on 23-30 September.
Everything is ready for Saturday 30th May at 17.00 CET to celebrate the greatest Hour of simultaneous physical activity across Europe. #BEACTIVE HOUR partners FIBO, GOfit, Les Mills, Life Fitness, Matrix, Myzone and Technogym will be organising their own fitness activities which will be broadcasted on their respective social media channels.
EuropeActive invites everyone to join the #BeActive hour on Saturday 30th May at 5pm (CET), to collectively celebrate physical activity across Europe. The Hour is for everyone, regardless of age, background, or fitness level.
EuropeActive has successfully put together a series of online Roundtables to address the need for a coordinated response to the Covid-19 affecting the European fitness sector. The 4th EFAF roundtable took place the 14th April and brought together 13 National Fitness Associations that were updated on the latest developments at European level.
From respiratory muscle trainers to the production of sustainable cold to membership management with artificial intelligence: 22 products have made it and can look forward to a nomination for the FIBO INNOVATION & TREND AWARD 2020. This year, the prize will be awarded in the six categories "Digital Fitness", "Health & Prevention", "Lifestyle, Life-Balance & Wellness", "Performance & Efficiency", "Start-Up" and "Ecology & Sustainability".
Due to recent developments concerning the coronavirus, FIBO has decided to postpone its exhibition trade show until the second half of the year. We fully support FIBO in delaying its trade show as health safety is a key priority to all of us.
