Where medals are made.
Tecnica Group welcomes its champions
There is a precise moment when a company’s work stops being a set of processes, shifts, departments and deadlines, and becomes something greater. For Tecnica Group, that moment came when Chairman Alberto Zanatta opened the doors of the Giavera del Montello headquarters — in the province of Treviso, at the heart of the Sportsystem district — to three athletes who, at Milano-Cortina 2026, brought years of hard work and training to their ultimate achievement.
The athletes at the centre of the event were Dominik Paris, long associated with the Nordica brand, and Blizzard–Tecnica athletes Federico Tomasoni, Johannes Aigner and Nico Haberl.

With 26 World Cup victories, Dominick Paris is the most successful Italian downhill skier of all time and, after having won virtually everything throughout his career, at Milano-Cortina 2026 he finally secured his first Olympic medal, finishing third in the downhill. A result that represents the culmination of a journey built on consistency and determination, establishing him as one of the most successful and enduring Italian skiers of all time.
Federico Tomasoni, aged twenty-nine, is a ski cross specialist and, after many years pursuing a podium finish, made a decisive breakthrough precisely in the Olympic season. At Milano-Cortina 2026, he won an outstanding silver medal in the individual event, followed shortly afterwards by his first World Cup victory. These remarkable achievements reward the perseverance and determination of an athlete who has evolved from promising talent to a leading figure on the international circuit.
Finally, the duo of Johannes Aigner and his guide Nico Haberl brought one of the most powerful and symbolic stories of the Games. Competing in para-alpine skiing in the visually impaired category, they dominated events on the slopes of Cortina, winning three gold medals in giant slalom, super-G and downhill, as well as a bronze in the combined.
For Tecnica Group employees, meeting these champions was an opportunity to connect with their idols and see first-hand the medals that are, in part, the result of their own work. This initiative goes beyond celebrating sporting achievements and forms part of a broader vision: strengthening the link between those who design and manufacture high-performance products and those who use them to reach the highest levels of performance.
“Winning a medal comes down to hundredths of a second, and to reduce each of those hundredths requires hours of training, dedication, sacrifice and attention to every smallest detail,” emphasised Luka Grilc, General Manager of Tecnica Group’s Alpine Division. “Today we are delighted to be here celebrating our athletes, who have achieved the ultimate goal for any sportsperson: winning an Olympic medal. But even if they had not won, we would feel the same pride. Because we know how hard they have worked — and how hard we have worked too. Every day we strive to make progress towards a goal, towards a medal, and celebrating these successes together shows not only how strong these athletes are, but how strong we are as colleagues. So thank you all for being part of this journey.”

In this perspective, the medals displayed in Giavera are not merely sporting symbols, but the synthesis of a system made up of people, expertise and passion: a meeting point between industry and performance, where every detail can make the difference between a good result and the result of a lifetime.
Within this context, Tecnica Group reaffirms its role not only as a manufacturer of excellence, but as a company capable of creating connections between people, skills and stories. Because behind every product there is not only technology, but also a set of shared values — passion, commitment and vision — that find their highest expression in sport. And, thanks to initiatives like this, these values return to life within the company itself, fueling a virtuous circle in which success is built together.
