Statements by Marisol Casado, president of World Triathlon
Marisol Married, President of World Triathlon and member of the IOC, explained the importance of this movement: “This move to a larger space within the same building, the Maison du Sports, is key to consolidating our presence in the Olympic movement.
For an organization like ours, having our headquarters so close to the International Olympic Committee and many other International Federations is essential to engage in discussions, share knowledge and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere that Lausanne offers in terms of international sport.
It has been an extremely positive experience having our headquarters there for over a decade, and now moving to a larger office, which we own, puts World Triathlon in an even stronger position to grow in the years to come.".
World Triathlon presence since 2011
World Triathlon opened the Lausanne office, which is currently the organization's headquarters, in 2011 and has two other operational offices in Madrid and Vancouver.
There are no previous results.
