Eight still in hunt to become first digital ambassador of Milan Cortina 2026 Wednesday, 17 February 2021
Italian Para-snowboarder Jacopo Luchini will present the latest round of tests to eight remaining contenders for the title of the first digital ambassador of Milan Cortina 2026. The goal of the 2026 Ambassador Challenge is to demonstrate that you don t have to be an athlete to believe in the values of the Olympic and Paralympic Movement and to sensitise the digital community to those universal values that inspire the Games, a Milan Cortina 2026 release said. What makes the difference will not be physical or athletic skills, but the ability to communicate and spread values such as excellence, respect and friendship.
