Inside Eurobike's Strategic Overhaul with New Managing Director Philip Ferger

In this episode, we sit down with Philip Ferger, the newly appointed Managing Director of Fairnamic — the company behind Eurobike — just four weeks into his role. Philip brings over 20 years of experience at Messe Frankfurt, co-owner of FairNamic, and joins at a critical moment for the cycling industry's most important trade show. The conversation covers what's actually changing at Eurobike and why: a more budget-accessible format for 2026, a new industry advisory board, and a broader strategic repositioning aimed at 2027. Philip also addresses the hard questions head-on — the B2B vs. B2C debate, whether Eurobike has drifted too far from its cycling roots, and what it takes to keep a trade show relevant when the industry is under pressure.If you're wondering what's next for Eurobike, this episode is essential listening.Read the latest 'The Business of Cycling' BlogSign up for 'The Business of Cycling' NewsletterRead the latest 'The Business of Cycling' BlogSign up for 'The Business of Cycling' Newsletter
