Impacto de la economía del deporte en Colombia.

This paper analyses the economy of sport in Colombia, highlighting its significant relevance as a driver of economic and social development through a combination of analytical tools such as the Sports Satellite Account (SSA) and the implementation of the VAR econometric model, analysing the interrelationship between the sports sector and significantly important relevant variables such as GDP, sports investment, spending on artistic and training activities by consumers and poverty. The results show that sport generates a significant and cumulative impact on GDP in the long term, as well as managing to boost strategic sectors such as sports tourism and consumption, infrastructure and employment, therefore demonstrating that sporting activities have a multiplier effect benefiting complementary areas, thus promoting economic diversification and national and regional development. On the other hand, from a social perspective, sport is considered a tool that achieves social inclusion and allows an improvement in the quality of life of the population and in turn a better social cohesion, allowing it to stand out for its ability to generate a reduction in inequalities.
