The sports industry encompasses the individuals, activities, businesses and organizations involved in producing, facilitating, promoting or organizing any activity, experience or enterprise centered on sports. It is the market in which the goods and services offered to buyers are sports related, spanning professional sports leagues, apparel, gambling, stadiums, supplements and memorabilia. The industry grew rapidly through the 2020s: former University of Oregon professors Dennis Howard and Roger Best estimated global industry earnings of 2.65 trillion dollars in 2023.
