Milan–Cortina is rooted in a strong Olympic tradition while embracing a contemporary vision of the Games, focused on sustainability, sporting legacy, and respect for the environment. These priorities resonate deeply in alpine regions, where the mountains call for humility, responsibility, and transmission.
