PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
The sports economy worldwide posted an average 7% annual growth rate between 2009 and 2013 (compared to 2.8% for the general economy), and
today represents more than 4.5 million jobs. Overall annual revenues for the sports industry exceed 550 billion euros worldwide, three times greater
than the luxury industry.
It is therefore not by chance that China recently chose sports as one of the five key industries to strengthen over the next ten years. In early 2015 France
also announced, through the Secretary of Sport and the Ministry of the Economy, that the sports economy represents one of the country’s critical industries.
These key indicators, when combined with the aging population and the rising demand for health/well-being, confirm that our industry has a bright future.
Created in 2010 from a blank slate, our trade association has progressed at a steady pace to quickly become the leading outdoor industry association
in Europe, uniting more than 330 member companies and providing them with several key opportunities: Shared services – Increased industry
knowledge – Human resources, training, and education – Sustainable development and innovation.
These combined benefits equip member companies with the necessary tools to face an increasingly competitive worldwide market, and make Outdoor
Sports Valley a truly exceptional region for establishing and/or growing a business in the outdoor industry.
In September 2015, OSV will host the Design Summer Camp, a new feature event in Europe for design, contributing to our role to help and provide support
to entrepreneurs and managers in our industry.
Never has the business environment in France been so favorable for entrepreneurs, and the success of our industry relies on the
collaborative spirit created by our association, especially through the future OSV Campus (business incubator and accelerator).
Only together will we go further faster.
Jean Luc Diard, President

OSV MEMBERS
MEMBER CATEGORIES
Starting out with a dozen member companies in 2010, today OSV represents more than 330 professional stakeholders in the industry, of which 70% are
located in the Northern French Alps (Haute-Savoie, Savoie, Isère), 25% elsewhere in the Rhône-Alpes Region and France, and 5% abroad. Depending on
their business focus, they are divided into three categories:
ACTIVE MEMBERS
AFFILIATE MEMBERS
Manufacturers,
distributors,
agents,
retailers, product designers and suppliers
in the outdoor industry. Products include hard
goods, apparel, accessories, footwear, and
bags from brands who serve a wide variety of
outdoor sports.
Event organizers, the media, marketing and
communications agencies, training centers,
professional associations, consultants,
and other service providers for the outdoor
industry.
Active members have access to services
that correspond to their specific needs and
are involved in group projects within the
association.
Note: 2 companies out of 3 are SMEs with less
than 10 employees.
Affiliate members have access to the network,
the employment and real estate platforms,
as well as the market intelligence and
information service. They are allowed access
to more services if certain criteria are met.
SPONSORING
MEMBERS
Companies or organizations that do not
fit into one of the first two categories, but
who would like to support the association, can
become sponsoring members. This is the case
for insurance companies, banks, real estate
agencies, and other organizations who work
in partnership with the outdoor industry.
Sponsoring members have access to the
network and represent preferred contacts
for the association.

The Innovation & Sustainable Development
committee serves to inform members about
new technologies and environmental issues
through an expert network of OSV’s scientific,
industrial, and institutional partners. Through
meetings with member companies, the
committee determines the group projects to
pursue. This is how the Textile Repair Center,
the research study on ceramics, and the
Innovation & Outdoor Test Center came to
fruition. Members enjoy preferred pricing to
help grow their business.
The committee’s primary mission is to
encourage outdoor industry companies to
design environmentally-friendly innovative
products and services. Via the Innovation &
Sustainable Development committe, OSV also
participates in developing local projects with
the region’s key stakeholders. The committee is
involved in environmental working groups with
European organizations such as the European
Outdoor Group (EOG) and other international
organizations such as the Outdoor Industry

THE DESIGN SUMMER CAMP
FOCUS ON
THE POLYBAG PROJECT
After spending two years in Anglet (Southwestern France), in 2015
the conference will start alternating every year between the Alps and
the coast. From September 14-18, 2015, design in sports will
take center stage in Annecy (French Alps) and bring together the
professions that contribute to product development and services
(designers, engineers, graphic designers, managers) as well as the
culture (musicians, film producers…) of the Action Outdoor Sports
industry.
These plastic bags have an extremely short lifecycle in our industry,
since they are only used to protect textile products during transport.
Systematically thrown away, hundreds of tons of plastic from our
industry finish either in smoke or in the ocean. OSV offers member
companies the chance to participate in the polybag working group and
contribute to developing a better alternative solution.

The Textile Repair Center will begin to offer garment repair services

The goal for this new repair center is to reduce the environmental and

services to their customer base, regardless of whether the original
warranty is still in effect. OSV and its member companies participated in
creating the center to ensure cost-effective high-quality repairs.

THE CERAMICS STUDY
A scientific research study analyzing the effects of ceramics on the human body is now available at a discount rate for OSV members. OSV,
EuroSIMA, and Sporaltec financed the research conducted by the
Université Savoie Mont-Blanc’s Physiology and Exercise Laboratory
(LPE). Several garments were tested in different atmospheric conditions
(warm, cold); the results provide key information on the effect ceramics
have on thermoregulation, muscular oxygenation, skin micro-circulation,
as well as subjective perceptions and strength indices.

“The credibility of OSV’s employment platform
with industry stakeholders is now well
established. Petzl took full advantage of this
service for the last 2 marketing and sales hires
this year. A big thanks to the entire team.”
Benoit Gazagnes, Sales Dir. Europe, Petzl
“Sustainability now plays an increasingly important role in our ever-changing outdoor industry.
As we strive to move towards cleaner and more
sustainable solutions, innovation will be a decisive factor. To study, inform, collaborate, and
provide valuable tools for member companies is
a core part of OSV’s role. From recent startups
to well-established multi-national companies,
every company must expand their knowledge
base and skills to integrate the environmental
factor into their thought process and action
plan. Sharing experiences with each other is
vital. Benefiting from an organization that brings
companies in the industry together and that
builds awareness among members helps each
one of us to prepare for the future challenges of
the outdoor sports industry, which more than
any other depends on the great outdoors and
the environment to thrive.”
