Time for the Paralympics to rejoice in Beijing

Austrian Lotteries – a reliable partner from the very beginning – is a vital supporter of Paralympic sports.

From March 4 to 13, 2022, the Austrian team consisting of 16 athletes and six guides will compete for medals at the Beijing Paralympic Games. At the most significant event in top-level sports for persons with disabilities, they will be competing for Austria in the disciplines of alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, biathlon and snowboarding.

CEO Bettina Glatz-Kremsner: “The Paralympic Committee’s team has achieved excellent results at the Paralympics in the past, and they returned home with plenty of medals each and every time. But the Paralympic Games are about much more than that: they’re about drawing the attention of people in Austria and all over the world to Paralympic sports and to familiarise everyone with these sports even more. I’m convinced that the athletes will once again make the most of their stage in Beijing. Austrian Lotteries is keeping its fingers crossed that the individual competitions will include stellar highlights for each and every one of them.”

The Paralympic Games are the world’s third largest sporting event. As an information exchange platform for all interested parties, the Virtual Austria House is also of particular importance during these events. Once again, Austrian Lotteries will be on board as a premium partner when this ultimately highly successful format goes online starting on March 4, 2022.
