Lausanne and the Canton of Vaud — known as the Olympic Capital — form a leading hub for international sport. Home to the International Olympic Committee, the region hosts 60 international sports organisations and federations, contributing to the development of global sport.
International federations and sports organisations work alongside R&D institutions, academia, start-ups and specialised businesses, creating a unique international sports ecosystem.
Working with its stakeholders, the Lausanne Olympic Capital Foundation supports the development of sports organisations, delivers major events and advances sports diplomacy.
In 2026, Lausanne will host the Grand Départ of the Tour de France Femmes, marking a new milestone in its international sporting journey.
Let’s connect — and Move as One.
