Sport Business School in Lyon

The Lyon school is an integral part of the sport, economic and cultural landscape of the first metropolitan area created in France. Its influence extends throughout the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes region while attracting students from 50 departments.

At the foot of Croix Rousse, the land of the Canut silk workers, the school weaves links with the new economic models of sport business (with private input and the support of the Metropolitan area): from the Mur de Lyon (100% private), which has become Climb Up (the world’s first group of climbing walls with 15 rooms and a total of 25 planned for 2019), to the OL’s Groupama Stadium, and the LOU Rugby, boosted by its main shareholder, GL Events, the world leader in its sector (Olivier Ginon, CEO), not to mention the Parker Academy, AMOS has grabbed the rebound!

At the same time, this new model is based on and supports popular inter-generation events like the SaintéLyon, the Beaujolais Marathon, the Sopra Steria Open, the Mudday, the Women’s Soccer World Cup, etc., which contribute to the professionalization of the sector and the creation of employment: a target for our students!

Finally, situated near the mountains, AMOS Lyon students developed their professional experience during the FIS Telemark World Cup in Pralognan in 2019, 2020 and 2021! Numerous lecturers in the field of mountain sports transmit the specific skills related to winter sports to our students, including professionals of event management, equipment manufacturers like Salomon, the communications and press relations managers of outdoor equipment manufacturers but also the directors of the tourist offices of ski resorts.
