Banca Ifis has a special interest in sports and its values and key disciplines, especially for young people. For the second year running, Banca Ifis is supporting the Italian National Olympic Committee (Comitato Olimpico Nazionale Italiano, CONI) in growth of the Italian sports champions of the future through the donation of scholarships worth a total of 160,000 euros.
On the occasion of announcing our donation for young Italian athletes who have distinguished themselves in international competitions, we also presented the research study ‘The value of youth activity in the Italian Sport System’. The study aims to give a clear and precise picture of the contribution that the youth sports sector makes to the economic and social fabric of Italy.
“We are happy to continue along the path we started last year alongside CONI in support of Italian sport, helping young athletes to combine the aspects of training and competitiveness in the best possible way. Banca Ifis has always had a lively interest in sport and this has led us to support worthy initiatives for the professional, amateur and youth sport system.”
