Leading sports sector business DECATHLON comprises two main activities: designing technical products and making innovative services available, and selling these products and services both online and instore.

With 330 points of sale in France and over 1,700 worldwide, DECATHLON and its 97,000 employees have been working ever since 1976 to fulfil an ongoing ambition: to innovate to promote sport as a whole, and take it wherever it is yet to reach.

The aim of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games Organising Committee, in accordance with the host city agreement signed by the IOC (International Olympic Committee), the CNOSF (French National Olympic and Sports Committee) and the City of Paris, is to plan, organise, finance and deliver the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2024.

The Olympic and Paralympic Games are the world’s premier sports event with an incomparable media impact. They will bring together 10,500 Olympic and 4,350 Paralympic athletes, drawn from 206 and 182 delegations respectively, from across all continents. Thanks to more than 100,000 hours of television broadcasts, they are watched by over 13 million spectators and 4 billion viewers worldwide. Together, they constitute an event unrivalled among any global sporting, economic or cultural events, and whose power ensures a huge impact.

Created in January 2018, Paris 2024 is chaired by Tony Estanguet, triple Olympic champion and IOC member. It is administered by a board of directors that brings together the project’s founding members: the CNOSF, the City of Paris, the State, the Île-de-France region, the French Paralympic and Sports Committee, the Seine Saint-Denis department Council and representatives of local authorities involved in the Games.
