Christoph Mechtler

In 2007 after his studies in marketing & sales, Christoph began working for the Austrian National Equestrian Federation. He's established the federation's first marketing and sponsoring department.

Christoph has been behind a number of new initiatives. He has been able to raise the number of sponsors from one in 2007 to over 30 today. Additionally, he has been working on a variety of projects which aim to improve membership benefits.

In his spare time, Christoph enjoys all kinds of sports, especially horse riding. When he's not participating in show jumping competitions himself, he's working as a trainer, groom or course designer.
