Sports for People and Planet - World Economic Forum
In response, the World Economic Forum, in collaboration with Oliver Wyman, has developed this insight report to highlight the urgent social and economic imperative for coordinated public–private action to secure the sector’s long-term resilience.
The $2.3 trillion global sports economy is experiencing robust growth, with annual revenues projected to reach $8.8 trillion by 2050.
|
|
However, this trajectory is increasingly at risk due to rising levels of physical inactivity and escalating environmental challenges – factors that could erode up to $1.6 trillion in annual revenue by mid-century and undermine the sector’s broader impact.
