First-Ever Report on the Global Economy of Physical Activity To Be Released at Global Wellness Summit – PR Web

There has been valuable research measuring the size of the gym and fitness club markets but never a report of this scope and depth that benchmarks and analyzes the entire physical activity market and its submarkets.

MIAMI (PRWEB) September 18, 2019

The Global Wellness Institute (GWI), a nonprofit research and educational resource for the world wellness industry, today announced that its 2019 research report "Move to Be Well: The Global Economy of Physical Activity" will be released at the Global Wellness Summit being held at the Grand Hyatt Singapore from October 1517.

If in 2018 the GWI found that the fitness/mind-body market was worth $595 billion, this new study broadens the scope of that segment to the physical activity sector, which includes the fitness, sports and active recreation, and mindful movement segments as well as supporting markets, including equipment and supplies, apparel and footwear, and technology. The 150+ page report is packed with data on all these key segments across the physical activity market (at global, regional and national levels); insights on emerging trends and business opportunities across countries; and 5-year growth projections. The generous support of 18 industry sponsors will make this much-anticipated research free to the world.

There has been valuable research measuring the size of the gym and fitness club markets but never a report of this scope and depth that benchmarks and analyzes the entire physical activity market and its submarkets, noted Susie Ellis, GWI chairman and CEO. It should prove a powerful resource for anyone in this explosively growing industry and help spur the broader global health imperative to bring physical activity to all.

Our research sponsors make GWIs annual studies a reality, and theyre moving the entire wellness industry forward by making this critical data and insight accessible to all, said Michelle Gamble, VP, Business Development. They deserve much credit.
