ESC targets innovation with SportQuantum

The European Shooting Confederation and tech innovator SportQuantum have officially signed a partnership agreement in Paris.

The meeting was hosted by the company’s CEO and Co-founder Jean-Marc Alexandre, alongside Deputy CEO and CTO Jean Sreng and their team. The ESC was represented by Secretary General Yahor Aleinik and Technical Committee Chair Robert Ferencak.

Under the agreement, key initiatives include product discounts for federations in the ESC Development Grant Programme, special pricing for U18 athletes, and two SQ Air 10 target sets awarded annually as prizes at the European Championships.

To mark the start of a strong and fruitful partnership, Mr Aleinik presented Mr Alexandre with a special token of appreciation, thanking the entire SportQuantum team for their dedication to the sport and innovation.

The ESC delegation also tested the flagship SQ Air 10 electronic targets firsthand: Mr Ferencak with an air pistol and Mr Aleinik with an air rifle. This innovative system is already praised by European and World Champions, including Istvan Peni (HUN) and Mathilde Lamolle (FRA), as an excellent tool for training and development.

Summarising the meeting, Mr Jean-Marc Alexandre said:

"We believe technology must serve the athlete, the coach and the federation. It must make training more efficient, more engaging and more accessible.This perfectly matches ESC’s ambition to modernize the sport and inspire more people, especially younger generations, to discover and practice shooting."

Looking ahead to the impact of the partnership, Mr Alexandre concluded:

"The purpose of this agreement with the ESC is to give the largest possible number of athletes, clubs and federations access to the best available technology, while supporting the modernization of shooting sports across the continent."
