It was built on unforgettable competitions and exciting moments. It was dictated by the challenges of our world and the opportunities it may offer. It was shaped with the essential support of our members. FINA was founded by eight national members in 1908. 110 years later, our International Federation has 209 partners in the five continents. We have a solid past behind us, brilliantly conducted by many generations of great leaders\u201d.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>On the new Headquarters in Lausanne, the FINA President declared: \u201cFor the first time, FINA owns its Headquarters. This inauguration in the Olympic Capital is also a testimony of our growth and sustainability. We are a leading International Federation in a very competitive sport environment and we surely constitute one of the pillars of the Olympic Movement\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In his speech, IOC President Thomas Bach congratulated FINA for this double celebration:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008080;\">\u201cIt is definitively a great day for Aquatics, but also for the entire Olympic Movement. You have a 110-year-history of success. You had great and outstanding athletes, strengthening the role of Sport in society.
