PARIS, France (AFP)—High-flying businessman Geoffroy Roux de Bezieux vowed Thursday to deliver an “enchanted moment” as he was unveiled as the new head of the organising committee of the 2030 Winter Olympics in the French Alps.
The organisation of the 2030 Games has been hit by a leadership crisis, with Edgar Grospiron resigning as head in September, the latest in a series of high-profile departures from the organising committee.
“Presiding over Alpes 2030 is an honour because above all it is a commitment to promoting, as a team, sport and France,” Roux de Bezieux said.
