Throughout the summit, attendees will be presented with current and new scientific findings. Additionally, a number of other events have been planned in cooperation with organizations that are dedicated to promoting physical activity (e.g. the German Association for Sports Science (dvs), the German Alliance for Non-Communicable Diseases (DANK), the Corporation for Sports and Exercise of the German Diabetes Society (DDG), the National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA), and the German Olympic Sports Confederation (DOSB).

Participants will also have access to current findings within sports- and exercise science and -medicine, which will be presented in form of presentations and workshops.

The representatives of the Global Active Cities initiative will meet separately to exchange ideas on how to further promote physical activity in metropolitan regions and present „best practice examples“. In addition to the representatives of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Olympic Committee (IOC), representatives of european and global sports medicine associations, including the European Federation of Sports Medicine Associations (EFSMA) and the International Federation of Sports Medicine (FIMS), will be in attendance.

A significant new program item will be a series of popular scientific lectures on various medical topics that will be presented by national and international experts.
