Jannik Sinner's Manager Becomes Largest Shareholder in One of Italy's Top Ski Resorts
Alex Vittur acquired approximately 5,000 shares in Kronplatz Holding AG from entrepreneur Thomas Gatterer in a deal reportedly worth around €10 million. With shares he already owned, Vittur’s stake rises to about 13%, making him the largest individual shareholder among 589 stakeholders. Kronplatz Holding oversees tourism businesses tied to the Kronplatz/Plan de Corones ski region in South Tyrol, including lift operations, mobility and transport infrastructure, touristic services, and gastronomy. The group manages ski lifts, slopes, bike trails, hotels, restaurants, and tourism development projects. Kronplatz is part of the Dolomiti Superski network and hosts the women’s FIS Alpine World Cup annually. The increased stake strengthens Vittur’s influence while the board composition remains unchanged until 2028.
"Alex Vittur, the longtime manager and close confidant of Jannik Sinner, has become the largest single shareholder in the holding company that controls one of Italy's premier ski destinations: Kronplatz. According to multiple Italian media reports, Vittur recently acquired approximately 5,000 shares in Kronplatz Holding AG from entrepreneur Thomas Gatterer in a deal reportedly worth around €10 million ($11.6 million). Combined with shares he already owned, the purchase gives Vittur control of roughly 13% of the company, making him the largest individual shareholder among the holding's 589 stakeholders."
"Kronplatz Holding oversees several key tourism businesses tied to the Kronplatz/Plan de Corones ski region in South Tyrol, including Kronplatz Seilbahn, Kronplatz Mobility, Kronplatz Touristik, and Kronplatz Gastronomie. The companies manage ski lifts, slopes, bike trails, transport infrastructure, hotels, restaurants, and tourism development projects across the resort area. Kronplatz is part of the Dolomiti Superski ski area, which connects 12 ski resorts in the Italian Dolomites under one unified lift-pass network. The ski resort is a regular stop on the women's FIS Alpine World Cup each year."
"The deal marks a significant shift in the ownership structure of one of the Alps' most commercially important ski destinations. Vittur already sat on the holding company's board of directors and also serves as vice president of Kronplatz Seilbahn, the company responsible for the resort's lift infrastructure. While the transaction does not immediately alter the current board composition - which was renewed last year through 2028 - Vittur's increased stake substantially strengthens his influence within the organization."
