A Lesson in Style from Monaco: Mitrano Puts Polo and Fair Play at the Heart of Monte Carlo’s International Scene

Monte Carlo continues to lead the way, bringing together polo, elegance, international networking and the Principality’s distinctive lifestyle

ROME, ITALY, September 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Francesco Mitrano, President of the Polo Club of Monte Carlo and founder of the internationally recognized Monaco Polo Federation, a member of the Fédération Internationale de Polo (FIP), is currently presenting an ambitious program of initiatives designed to further strengthen Monaco’s position on the international polo and luxury lifestyle scene.

For years, Mitrano has played a leading role in the development and promotion of polo in the Principality of Monaco. His work goes beyond sport. Through passion, dedication and a strong international network, he has helped establish the Monaco Polo Federation as a reference point for exclusive events that combine sport, elegance, fair play and the unmistakable lifestyle of Monte Carlo.

Under his leadership, the Principality continues to attract international polo players, teams, VIPs, entrepreneurs and prominent personalities from around the world, creating a unique environment where sporting excellence and high-level networking naturally meet.

The boundary between a sporting competition and a business networking opportunity becomes increasingly fluid when events are designed with the experience, sophistication and attention to detail that characterize Francesco Mitrano’s approach.

From the Venice International Film Festival to meetings with mayors from the French Riviera, from the Principality of Monaco to the leadership of the Italian Olympic Committee (CONI), Mitrano is currently engaged in a series of international meetings aimed at developing new projects, partnerships and opportunities for the future of polo.

Among the initiatives already announced is the Monte Carlo Winter Polo Cup, scheduled to take place from January 29–31, 2027, at Valcastello Polo Club in San Candido, in the spectacular setting of the Italian Dolomites. The event is being developed in collaboration with Chicco Schettino, founder and patron of Valcastello Polo Club.

The Winter Polo Cup represents another step in a broader vision that seeks to connect Monaco with some of the world’s most prestigious polo destinations, while promoting the values that define the sport: tradition, fair play, excellence, international friendship and elegance.

And there may be more to come.

Rumors of additional initiatives planned for October are already generating interest within international polo circles. A meeting scheduled for next Saturday with representatives of several Swiss polo clubs is expected to provide further insight into the projects currently being developed by Mitrano and his international network.

With Monaco continuing to serve as a natural meeting point for sport, culture, business and luxury, Francesco Mitrano’s vision places polo at the center of a broader international lifestyle ecosystem—one in which competition, relationships and opportunity can coexist with the timeless elegance of Monte Carlo.
