During the years, we have established strategic, long-term partnerships with some of the most prestigious Universities and Scientific Institutions in Italy. These collaborations are crucial for:
- Driving Innovation: exploring and implementing new technologies and methodologies.
- Fostering Talent: actively participating in the professional development and training of the next generations

University of Verona
We collaborate with the Master’s Degree in Management of Innovative and Sustainable Sports Activities (LM47) at the Department of Management – University of Verona. This partnership is crucial for training the next generation of experts in sustainable sports management.
Students are directly involved in the planning and execution of our upcoming events and projects.
Through hands-on involvement, students develop essential transversal skills such as teamwork, time management, and problem-solving.
They gain valuable networking opportunities, apply academic skills in a practical setting, and enhance their extracurricular profile.
Sardegna Ricerche
Our partnership with Sardegna Ricerche focuses on high-level scientific research to deepen the understanding of the orienteering athlete. This commitment is highlighted by the Orienteering 4 Research Sardinia project, promoted within the Sport and Wellness 4 Research initiative.
We co-organized two scientific conferences during the 5+5 Sardegna 2025 event, serving as a platform for experts to share the latest findings relevant to the sport.
In collaboration with Sardegna Ricerche and the University of Cagliari, PWT Italia athletes participated in an innovative scientific project: “Integrated functional evaluation in the orienteering athlete: analysis of the respiratory, cardiovascular and energy metabolism systems, dietary habits, motor skills, and cognitive-motor functions.”
University of Trento
We collaborated with the School of Innovation at the University of Trento to organize “The Orienteering Challenge”.
The 4-week event encouraged participating groups to present innovative ideas that could revolutionize aspects of the orienteering sport.
A standout concept was the vision of Eco-Friendly Orienteering, which impressed Gabriele Viale, Team Manager of the club. This initiative combined the inherently green aspects of the sport with clean-up and environmental awareness initiatives to address local territory needs.
This collaboration underscored the power of sport to drive environmental awareness and action, highlighting the role of orienteering as a tool for sustainability and community engagement.
