IEG: THE MINISTER FOR SPORT AT RIMINIWELLNESS
FOR THE FIRST EDITION
OF THE STATES GENERAL OF FITNESS AND WELLNESS
Rimini (Italy), 4 May 2023 - Plotting the best trajectories together for a long-term healthy and solid development of the sector. This is the objective of the States General of Fitness and Wellness, the first edition of which will be held on Thursday 1st June, the opening day of RiminiWellness 2023, Italian Exhibition Group's event that will enliven the Rimini Expo Centre and the Romagna Riviera from 1st to 4th June 2023.
The States General of Fitness and Wellness intend to fill the gap in the national debate by bringing together all the sector's strategic stakeholders to address present and future key issues: an open, frank and honest discussion to restore momentum to a sector that has been experiencing complex dynamics over the past 15 years and whose social, economic and cultural impact has too often been underestimated by the country-system.
In this scenario, the Minister for Sport and Youth, Andrea Abodi's intervention in Rimini is of extraordinary importance since he will be attending the States General exactly one month before the Sports Labour Reform, the eagerly awaited law destined to produce important changes in the sector and, for this reason, at the centre of a lively debate for over a year, is due to come into force on 1st July.
In the light of a renewed sensitivity of Italians regarding physical and mental wellbeing, which has led millions of people to gyms, swimming pools and fitness centres, the sector is still grappling with the effects of the pandemic, the energy crisis and the sudden rise in inflation. In a sector that already suffers from a high degree of facility pulverisation and a lack of recognition.
In such a context, a moment of reflection is more obligatory and urgent than ever in order to take stock of the situation and plot new routes by exploring opportunities for growth and development in the sector. An event of this kind can only take place in the prestigious setting of RiminiWellness, the most important European event that, every year, gathers together sector professionals and thousands of entrepreneurs, gym and swimming pool managers, personal trainers, students and fitness enthusiasts.
The day's agenda
On 1st June, the States General of Fitness and Wellness will be divided into two separate but synergic moments. In the morning, starting at 11 am, the "institutional" session of the event will take place during which scientific, economic and social issues will be addressed. In particular, the close link between physical exercise, health and the prevention of chronic diseases will be explored in depth with Prof. Andrea Ermolao, member of the RiminiWellness Advisory Board and Secretary General of Exercise is Medicine Italy , an international campaign that promotes prescribing physical exercise as a medical treatment. This will be followed by a debate with the Institutions to see how to include this provision within the National Health Service, as stated by Health Minister, Orazio Schillaci. Eyes will then turn to the rest of Europe with a study presented by Andreas Paulsen, Secretary General of EuropeActive, the sector's European Association and a partner of RiminiWellness as of this year.
One topic of extraordinary interest for national operators within the sector certainly regards investments aimed at the growth and strengthening of associations and companies. This will be discussed with the Istituto per il Credito Sportivo (Institute for Sports Credit) and several key players from the national and international economic-financial world. Financial issues will also be discussed in the following session dedicated to tax incentives for the sector in view of the important social role it plays in the country on several fronts: health, culture and education. A social role that will be the subject of discussion with the top management of Sport e Salute , the public company whose mission lies precisely in the dissemination of the culture of sport and healthy lifestyles aimed at improving people's quality of life. As already mentioned, the morning will draw to a close with words from the Minister for Sport and Youth, Andrea Abodi.
The "professional" session of the States General will begin at 2.30 pm. Sustainability, bonuses, taxation, technological innovation and new business models will be just some of the topics under discussion.
