WHY EPSI
Sport has been gaining prominence in recent years. Not only is sport being promoted as beneficial to both health and social relationships, its economic significance is also growing. Sport incorporates many industrial sectors and services and is a growing area for companies of all sizes. A 2012 study calculated that the direct effects of sport, combined with its multiplier effects, added up to 3% (294.36 billions of euros) of overall gross value added in the EU. As a relatively new sector, sport is generally regarded as being an early adopter of new ideas and innovations.
