The Alpine Health & Innovation Foundation (AHIF) aims to promote research, innovation, and value creation in sports, health, and technology. In particular, it intends to initiate institutional and project-related ventures and implement them independently or in cooperation with third parties. The foundation was established in 2012 and renamed from “Engadin” to “Alpine” Health & Innovation Foundation (AHIF) in 2025.

The Alpine Health & Innovation Foundation (AHIF) adapts and develops technology to make human movement in sport measurable. The new technological possibilities are applied in sport to reduce the risk of injury, optimize performance, and make sport more understandable for athletes and spectators.

The Alpine Health & Innovation Foundation (AHIF) works in close cooperation with international associations (e.g., International Olympic Committee (IOC), International Ski and Snowboard Federation (FIS)), national organizations (e.g., Swiss Council for Accident Prevention (BFU)), academic partners (e.g., Balgrist University Hospital, ETH, Norwegian School of Sport Sciences, WSL - Snow and Avalanche Research Institute SLF) and industry.
