eps ARENA SUMMIT cooperates with SPORTS20

The eps ARENA SUMMIT impresses its visitors year after year, not least thanks to its renowned partnerships. In 2025, SPORTS20 is expanding the event's cooperation portfolio for the first time.

SPORTS20 is an international, non-profit platform for sustainable development in sports. It offers a practical framework based on the 17 UN goals—aiming to reduce footprint, increase handprint, and drive systemic change across the sports sector.

The organisation thus joins a strong cooperation portfolio and complements the partnerships of the eps ARENA SUMMIT with the Association of German Stadium Operators (VDS), the AG Veranstaltungen, the German Football League (DFL) ticketing working group and the ‘second-tier team sports leagues’.

The cooperation with SPORTS20 also includes a presentation by Stefan Wagner, who founded the platform together with Tanja Ferkau:

Driving sustainable transformation in the world of sports - and beyond

A sustainable, fair and resilient world is not a distant goal, but must be the starting point for all action. SPORTS20 consistently pursues this goal: as an international platform that utilises the transformative power of sport to promote cross-sectoral change - with a clear focus on reducing emissions, increasing impact and systemic change.

The content is based on many years of experience at the interface of sport, business and sustainability - with positions in professional sport, strategic CSR consulting and club development. Sustainability is not an accompanying measure, but a central component of corporate and social responsibility. Sport can do more - and SPORTS20 shows how this impact can be realized.
