Following a hugely successful event last year in Split, Croatia, a W3Fit EMEA, is heading to the Chia Laguna resort in Sardinia from 8-11 October.

David Zarb-Jenkins, W3Fit co-founder said: “We’re excited to take W3Fit EMEA to beautiful Sardinia at this stunning resort. The sprawling scenery and outdoor spaces make it the perfect venue to deliver our fresh, innovative programme integrating health and well-being”.

W3Fit EMEA will bring together like-minded leaders in the club and fitness industry through pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings, networking activities and a sense of community and purpose.

Buyers are carefully chosen and vetted based on purchasing plans including highly qualified owners and operators from EMEA’s top health, fitness and leisure clubs and hotels.

Meanwhile, supplier partners represent product categories that are innovating the fitness industry.

With six months remaining for the event, several fitness operators and suppliers have already committed their attendance.

Returning suppliers include Technogym, Myzone, Life Fitness, Woodway, Gantner, Proinsight, Gladstone, Les Mills, Keiser and more.

Additionally, several new suppliers – notably BLK Box, Milon, Orbit4, Total Gym, Ziva, Evolt, Exerp and Kingsbox – will be joining.

On the operator side, the event has attracted the UK’s most prominent fitness operators, who will be joined by an increased selection of top operators from the rest of Europe and the Middle East.

Buyers from the UK include David Lloyd, Nuffield, Everlast, Fitness First, Lift Brands and Everyone Active.

European companies such as Urban Gym Group, Marriott, Fit Express, Fit+ International, Holmes Place and Synergym will be hosted as well as Leejam, Puregym, Armah Sports, TriFit and Ezdihar Sports/Evox Clubs representing the Middle East.
