The SBP Gala is a special evening when the entire industry comes together to honor those who are truly shaping Polish sport.

In an elegant setting, we recognize individuals, organizations, and initiatives that, over the past year, have stood out for their courage, effectiveness, and dedication to the development of the sport-business environment. They are the leaders of change, creators of groundbreaking projects, builders of valuable relationships, and ambassadors of progress.

Spring Edition
The spring edition of the SBP Congress is a one-day, nationwide gathering of individuals shaping the future of sport in Poland.

It is a space for discussions on development directions, exchange of experiences, and building a conscious, professional sports community in Poland.

It is a day of intensive knowledge sharing, inspiration, and examples of effective solutions. The day concludes with an industry evening – a more informal gathering that encourages relationship-building and conversations beyond the stage.
