ThinkSport (www.thinksport.org) is the first network that brings together the variety of sports-related expertise and excellence in Lausanne, the Canton of Vaud, across Switzerland and beyond: from sport organisations, research and development institutes, educational bodies, businesses, health institutions, the public sector to international organisations and NGOs.
 
Founded by the City of Lausanne, the Canton of Vaud, the Swiss Confederation and the International Olympic Committee, ThinkSport’s aim is to facilitate new partnerships, knowledge sharing, creative thinking and innovative projects, and in doing so, drive progress in sport. Our ambition is to transform silos into a hub of collaboration.
 
Objectives:
- Build on the proximity of the sport, business, research and educational capabilities available to the sporting community in Lausanne, Canton de Vaud and Switzerland and thereby build a centre of excellence for sport.
- Create synergies by encouraging partnerships.
- Encourage organisations and companies working within sport to see the region as a key source of knowledge and international expertise.
- Assist organisations, companies and individuals in understanding the sport ecosystem.
- Offer services and tools that add value to professionals working in or with sport.
 
ThinkSport acts locally with a global vision: Whilst progress is initiated in Switzerland due to the many influential sports organisations in the country, the network also extends to players across the globe and has an important impact at international level.
