Trend Analysis
In the realm of professional fitness exhibitions, commercial fitness equipment continues to hold a significant share. Enterprises in the fitness industry are adapting proactively, especially in the midst of rapid industry reshuffling. Notably, there is a discernible rise in the popularity of home fitness equipment and an increased integration of digital technology elements in line with the AIGC era.
The fitness industry is becoming more intelligent, offering customized content and diversified settings to cater to the evolving needs of fitness enthusiasts. We've witnessed a significant increase in participation by young people and women in sports, and the scope of Pilates has expanded substantially.
In the stadium operation and swimming pool landscape exhibition areas, driven by the "14th Five-Year Plan" and policies related to sports park construction, the exhibits have shifted from single-path products to comprehensive solutions for sports parks. These solutions encompass smart trails, engineering design, and more, reflecting the ever-growing commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction.
In the domain of Sports Consumption, we've teamed up with the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Sports, the Shanghai Sports Development Centre, and the Ningjin County Government to focus on the promising sports and fitness consumption and service markets. Against the backdrop of the "Year of Consumption Boost," we've launched the Shanghai Sports Consumption Festival, promising a grand celebration of sports and fitness.
