In line with our values of sharing, performance and team spirit, Prolutech has been supporting and accompanying a group of young athletes and associations for several years.
Beginners or high level athletes, sometimes even disabled, small local associations or on a larger national scale, we have a common interest in all our partners.
We are proud to support these promising young champions in their journey to the Olympics, and these associations that work tirelessly to promote their actions.

- Jordan BROISIN in handisport skiing and a new nugget, Fiona ACQUISTAPACE, in alpine skiing.
- Thomas JAKOBS in para-badminton
- Alexandre RAEDISH for the mountain bike
- The F2C football club
- The association La Sapaudia which works for bone marrow donation.
Sophie Chauveau
Sports partnership - BIATHLON
A young biathlete from Haut-Savoie, Sophie is a member of the French Biathlon team. It was with the very best that Sophie distinguished herself last season in the Biathlon World Cup. We experienced some great emotions in Le Grand Bornand with her 4th place in the 7.5km Sprint and 5th place in the 12.5km Mass Start. At the start of 2023, she also won a silver medal at the IBU Cup in Austria in the 7.5km sprint. Thank you for these wonderful emotions, Sophie, and we look forward to following her next season! In the meantime, check out our video of her on skis in full training, illuminated and accompanied by Prolutech .
Jordan Broisin
Sports partnership - French Ski Team for the disabled
Jordan is a young disabled skier who we've been supporting for several years now. Over the years, his career and achievements have gone from strength to strength.
A keen skier from an early age, he hails from Gruffy, a small village in the Haute-Savoie region of France. In May 2009, he was involved in a motorcycle accident that resulted in the amputation of his left leg and the severing of two motor nerves in his left shoulder. His only motivation when he woke up was to get back on the ski slopes, a wish he fulfilled the following winter thanks to an adapted temporary prosthesis. He joined the French Paralympic Team and took part in the 2018 Paralympic Games in Pyeongchang and the 2022 Paralympic Games in Beijing. This year was an exceptional one for Jordan, with a first World Cup podium finish and a runner-up World Championship title in the standing Para alpine ski Slalom category!!!! What a superb season for him.
Océane MICHELON
Sports Partnership - Biathlon - IBU CUP
Océane Michelon is a very promising French biathlete from Savoie. She is already French junior champion in 2020. Since then, Océane has been pulling out all the stops and aims to climb the ladder to the top of the world circuit in her category.
She also finished 10th in the women's pursuit at the World Youth Championships in the 2020/2021 season.
Prolutech is proud to sponsor a future champion of the French biathlon.
Don't hesitate to follow her adventures!
Alexandre RAEDISCH
Sports partnership - Mountain biking
After some very convincing results over the seasons, this young regional hopeful in cyclo-cross and mountain biking is racking up a string of fine victories. Very promising results! 3rd overall and 1st senior in the 2021 Vauban raid, he's hoping to grab a few more places this year. For him, 2022 meant: 83rd overall in the Marathon World Cup; 23 days of racing; 4 different countries; 9,000 km of cycling; 191,632 meters of climbing; 398 hours in the saddle; 203 bike rides. Prolutech is proud to renew its commitment to Alexandre once again this year.
Thomas JAKOBS
Sport Partnership - Badminton Handisport
Thomas is a young athlete who loves racket sports! He's a member of the French disabled badminton team, and has already won the French doubles title with his team-mate. Only four years of practice at the Annecy Badminton Club, and he's titillating the highest levels! Thomas has joined the French squad for the 2021 Olympic Games in Tokyo, and has taken part in no fewer than 14 competitions around the world! This year will be decisive for his future participation in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, on home soil. His gold medal at the French championships and his excellent results are assets for his qualification.

LA SAPAUDIA ASSOCIATION
For more than 10 years now, Prolutech has been supporting La Sapaudia association in its actions.
La Sapaudia is an association created in 2009 in Albertville, in Savoie, with the aim of promoting the registration of bone marrow donation on the register of "lifeguards" and to promote the acceptance and integration of disability in all its forms.
To this end, Sapaudia organizes physical and sports challenges throughout France.
New in 2021: its "Auvergne" branch proposes a 400km cycling challenge in June, with about 150 participants, including many tandems to allow people with disabilities to take part in this beautiful human adventure.
Our contribution: lighting and securing the route at night with our mobile lighting balloons on vehicles, and our LED safety vests.
Apart from these sporting efforts, La Sapaudia is more than 260 awareness actions carried out in high schools and companies, and numerous blood drives throughout the year. Congratulations to them!
