Wijn aan de Rijn business event in Utrecht

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of attending the annual Wijn aan de Rijn business event in Utrecht, which brought together inspiring business leaders from the Kromme Rijnstreek region.

I took this chance to highlight World Boxing's mission to safeguard boxing’s place in the Olympic Games and emphasised

its importance, not only for the sporting world but for everyone who values the Olympic spirit.

The overwhelming support I received after my speech further fuels my dedication to this mission.
Let’s keep pushing forward!💪🥊
