Bike Europe main stage for e-bike innovations

MUNICH, Germany - Despite a stagnating global economy, unresolved conflicts, and other geopolitical mood killers, the stock market boom continued, at least in the first quarter of 2025. Then came Trump trouble, with the US president instigating a global trade war. The tariff conflict is not only having an impact on the existing global economic order, but also on financial markets. The stock market went on a roller coaster. Investors are reacting to the unpredictability of the 'America First' prophet, which on a long-term could benefit Europe.

FRANKFURT, Germany - Eurobike marked the fourth edition of the Women in Cycling breakfast. Growing from humble beginnings with a few participants to a raucous reception for this year's speakers. This is no longer a simple networking event to bind a minority group together, but a movement looking to evolve the face of the industry. Data is now at the forefront as initiatives focus on, amongst other things, closing the gender equity pay gap. The number of new national women-driven networks being launched this year alone, shows that the momentum is not just growing, it's becoming unstoppable.

RIMINI, Italy - The Italian Bike Festival has grown increasingly significant for the cycling industry since 2018, following the decline in relevance of EICMA-Milan in recent years. The most recent edition at Misano Circuit in September 2024 featured more than 600 brands and 57,000 end consumers and industry professionals. The successful event has been taken over by the Italian Exhibition Group.
