Overview
- Edgar Grospiron resigned as president of the Alpes 2030 organising committee on Thursday, September 10, saying the conditions to continue were no longer met and triggering an urgent leadership search.
- An extraordinary general assembly on September 14 changed the committee's statutes to allow director-general Vincent Roberti to hold the presidency temporarily and the bureau exécutif then appointed him president par intérim.
- A Comité International Olympique coordination delegation is inspecting Lyon’s ice-sport sites this week and has said it trusts the project while urging the committee to settle on stable leadership quickly.
- Several high‑profile candidates have been floated, including Martin Fourcade, Michel Vion and Henri Giscard d’Estaing or a proposed tandem, while Tony Estanguet and Amélie Oudéa‑Castéra have publicly declined to run.
- Organisers face tight delivery pressures with roughly three and a half years to the Games after a string of senior departures and the spring transfer of the ice‑sports hub from Nice to Lyon, making effective governance and partner alignment urgent.
