  • After a presence in Paris 2024, we are live in another Olympic city: Milan. Host of the 2026 Winter Games, Milan is now turning its parks and playgrounds into open sport for everyone. Thirty smart stations. Free equipment. Ready in seconds, right where people live. Two months in: • 2,800+ people • 21,500+ participations • 30 stations, placed first in the neighborhoods that need them most Grazie Rossella Ruggeri and the Decathlon Italia team, and the Comune di Milano, for turning a shared mission into action. Paris. Milan. And next? We already have our eyes on LA. 😉 Any Sport, Any Time, Anywhere. #EquipSport #DecathlonItalia #Milano #SportForAll Saverio Galardi Martina Corrozzatto Giovanni Di Martino Stefano Locatelli Carlotta Cerutti Adrien LAGACHE https://lnkd.in/eADQzpbv

    Nel nostro lavoro parliamo spesso di purpose e di valori di brand. Ma la vera sfida – e la soddisfazione più grande – è quando le strategie escono dalle presentazioni aziendali e cambiano concretamente le abitudini delle persone. 🌳🏀 Insieme al Comune di Milano e a Equip Sport, abbiamo voluto fare qualcosa di tangibile: rimuovere le barriere e rendere lo sport semplice, accessibile e sempre più vicino ai luoghi della vita quotidiana. Per farlo, abbiamo installato 30 Smart Locker con attrezzatura sportiva gratuita in altrettanti parchi, aree verdi e campetti cittadini, privilegiando i quartieri meno centrali. L'idea è semplice: fare in modo che chiunque possa improvvisare una partita a basket, un allenamento di fitness o un match a ping pong, senza doversi preoccupare di portare l'attrezzatura da casa. Basta accedere a un’app, prenderla in prestito dai nostri locker e iniziare a giocare! I risultati dei primi due mesi di test confermano quanto i milanesi abbiano voglia di sport e di vivere lo spazio urbano in collettività, come vero e proprio momento di aggregazione e movimento: - Oltre 2.800 cittadini coinvolti - Più di 21.500 sessioni di sport giocate Un GRAZIE sincero a chi ha creduto in questa visione fin dall'inizio: Diego Rango d'Aragona, Paolo Andrea PICCU, Gloria Rivolta e Jean-Francois Mace. Al mio team – Giacomo Malvezzi, Martina Corrozzatto, Carlotta Cerutti Federico Timossi e Ivan Pezzotta – per aver trasformato l'idea in realtà. E ovviamente a tutta la squadra di Equip e Comune di Milano per essere stati partner straordinari in questo viaggio di innovazione urbana. Continuiamo a far muovere le persone, rendendo lo sport accessibile, ovunque! 💙 #DecathlonItalia #EquipSport #Milano #SportAccessibile

  • Vancouver Hub is up and running! 🚀

    Getting active in our city just got easier! The Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation is proud to partner with Equip Sport and Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities to launch 30 free, self serve sports equipment lockers in parks and public spaces across the city. 🏀⚽ This new pilot program makes it easier for residents and visitors to get moving—whether it’s shooting hoops, passing a volleyball, or kicking a soccer ball around. With the Equip Sport app, you can unlock a nearby station using your phone, borrow the equipment, and enjoy more opportunities for spontaneous play. 🙌 Learn more and find locker locations here: vancouver.ca/equipsport

  • Hier soir à l'Adidas Arena de Paris, Equip Sport a reçu le Trophée de l'Innovation lors de la 22e cérémonie des Trophées SPORSORA. En 2024, on lançait nos premières stations à Paris pendant les Jeux Olympiques. En 2026, on reçoit la plus haute distinction européenne dans le business du sport. Et on ne ralentit pas. Prochaine étape : trois villes hôtes de la Coupe du Monde FIFA 2026. Vancouver est déjà opérationnel. Miami sera lancé dans les prochaines semaines. Et une troisième ville reste à dévoiler. Le vélo en libre-service a changé la façon dont les villes se déplacent. Nous changeons la façon dont les villes jouent. Du matériel sportif gratuit, accessible à tous, directement là où les gens sont. 500+ stations. 10+ pays. 1,5 million de sessions. 4,8 étoiles. #EquipSport #SPORSORA #EconomieDuPartage #accès #vancouver #miami #sport #SportPourTous #FIFA2026

  • Sport is everywhere, all the time. It's on concrete courts running a 3v3 pick up, in neighborhood parks on a sunny Sunday morning, and on local streets playing winner stays on. It is in these places that our mission comes to life, unlocking sport for all in everyday moments, alongside brands committed to supporting communities through ACCESS. 📹 : Apollo18 x Apollo GG #unlockingsportforall #unlockyourgame #anysportanytimeanywhere #equipsport #access #sport #grassroots #sharingeconomy

    I don’t post much on LinkedIn, but this one felt worth sharing. I loved working with Friends Of Bata on this case study of Equip Sport. 🌍⚽🏀 It tells the story of how a simple idea, sharing sports equipment in the heart of cities, has grown into a movement that’s making play more accessible, inclusive, and joyful for communities. #UrbanInnovation #SportForAll #CommunitySports #StartupLessons #innovation #marketing #startup

    We all have that one friend, most of the time our best friend: I'm "5 minutes away"... It's been 5 minutes, 30 minutes ago. 😂 We’ve all been there… showing up to the court or the pitch with an idea, but less of a plan. Someone forgot the ball, no one brought a pump, and that one friend that says they’re “5 minutes” late… That’s where Equip Plus comes in: making sure the game starts when you want it to, on your own terms. EQUIP PLUS, Players can now: ✨ Book in advance... let's run it tomorrow at 5. ✨ Play longer with extended sessions... golden goal! ✨ Fast track unlocks with a single tap... mum said dinner is at 6. As Access is our number one value at Equip Sport, all of our stations will always have free-access equipment for everyone. Equip Plus is an added benefit, not a requirement. This is just the beginning. The Equip Sport app is becoming more than a key, it’s growing into a platform that unlocks both access and community 🫂 . We’ve launched Equip Plus first in Merton London Borough Council, UK and will be rolling it out to more Hubs in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for what's to come and tag that one friend that's always late, but we love'em anyway 😉 #EquipSport #UnlockYourGame #EquipPlus #boroughofsport Roxanne Bennett Quentin Geromin Vincent Borel Oscar Baudey Evert Rotshuizen Edwin W.

    Unlocking Play in Every Neighbourhood... Destinations check this out. Imagine if anyone could find a ball in their local park, and just start playing. No gatekeepers, no expensive rentals, no barriers. That’s exactly what Equip Sport is doing. They’re building a network of community-based sports equipment stations, powered by the sharing economy. Through their app, you can: - Find equipment in your area - Unlock it with a QR code - Play your sport of choice, football, basketball, volleyball, and more - Return it so the next person can enjoy it It’s simple, smart, and exactly the kind of innovation our communities need. Whether it’s kids trying a new sport for the first time, adults rediscovering their game, or neighbours connecting over a casual match, Equip Sport is making 'Any Sport, Anywhere, Anytime' a reality. This is more than convenience, it’s access, health, culture, and community rolled into one. If you believe in breaking down barriers to play, take a look at what they’re doing, follow them, and think about how this could work in your local spaces.
