About us
Snowit is the online travel agency dedicated to the world of winter sports. It is a unique platform that aggregates all services related to the world of winter sports (ski passes, rentals, experiences, ski lessons, packages with hotels, etc.), offering the best integrated customer experience to skiers, snowboarders and freeriders.
We are a young, passionate and talented team of 30 people, and we are supported by the best investors in the world of sport and digital. In 2020 we were selected as one of the 8 best Italian start-ups by the investment fund BHeroes, specialised in the world of travel and created by the founder and chairman of the Lastminute.com group. We want to bring innovation to one of the biggest markets in the tourism sector and where Italy plays a market-leading role. We are developing new solutions to bring digitalisation to the sports tourism sector outside the world of winter sports, with the aim of becoming the benchmark for sports travel. With the sale of a 33.33% shareholding to FNM, the Group controlled by the Lombardy Region to which Ferrovie Nord Milano belongs, Snowit finalised a capital increase at the beginning of December 2021 and set the ball rolling for further development, with a view to the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics.
