Doha, Qatar: Qatar Olympic Committee (QOC) Secretary General Jassim bin Rashid Al Buenain led a delegation from the QOC on an official visit to the French National Institute of Sport, Expertise, and Performance (INSEP) in Paris.
The visit marked a significant step in strengthening strategic relations with leading global institutions in the fields of sports development and national team preparation.
During the visit, Al Buenain held a meeting with INSEP Director General Fabien Canu, where the two parties explored opportunities for the exchange of best practices, collaboration in academic and qualification programs, and technical cooperation in the areas of athlete care and performance optimization.
The meeting also reviewed ways to align preparations for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games, with both Qatari and French Olympic teams gearing up for the road ahead.
