Preskige operates as a multi-sport platform focused on connecting users with qualified instructors for exclusive sports experiences. Initially conceived as a "Social Skiing" platform, the company was founded by Eugenio Marsaglia to link skiers with highly qualified instructors for technique improvement. Born in Rome in 1987, Marsaglia's background as a national ski instructor and coach informed the company's direction. The business idea won the ReStartAlp 2017 campus, which provided early-stage support and networking opportunities.
The company established its first physical location, a ski and snowboard school, in Sestriere, Italy, in 2019. This location serves not only as a booking office but also as a community hub for events and workshops. Preskige generates revenue by facilitating the booking of private and group lessons and curated mountain experiences. Its business model initially faced bureaucratic challenges related to the VAT exemption status of ski schools, which prompted a revision of the business plan. In May 2018, the company secured an investment from three of the four founders of Musement, a tour booking service, which helped fund the platform's renewal.
The core service is a web platform where clients can view instructor profiles, then book and pay for lessons. A key feature is the ability for users to relive their lessons through video recordings and analysis, which are stored on their personal profiles. The instructor team includes national instructors, federal coaches, and ex-athletes specializing in various disciplines. While its foundation is in skiing and snowboarding, Preskige has expanded its offerings to include other sports such as e-biking and has plans to enter markets like kitesurfing and tennis, aiming to become a comprehensive platform for sports enthusiasts.
