More than 600 companies have already booked exhibition spaces at OutDoor, and it is anticipated that 900 exhibitors from 40 countries will present more than 1,000 brands at the show.

New participants include brands such as Pearl Izumi (Japan), Scott (Switzerland), GoPro (USA) and Kangaroos (USA).

Project manager Stefan Reisinger said: "OutDoor is increasingly becoming an international heavyweight.

"With our partners at the European Outdoor Group, we are focussing on the right topics and trends, while engaging the opinion leaders. We’re very pleased that the eyes of the outdoor world will again be turning to Friedrichshafen in July 2012."

OutDoor runs July 12-15 in Friedrichshafen, Germany.
