SPORT, HORSES AND PEOPLE

Teamwork is essential, at Elvo Stables, having satisfied and proud collaborators is fundamental. Sharing a victory is more rewarding than winning alone.

Passion and Dedication

SILVANO MEIER

A lifelong equestrian enthusiast, Silvano oversees client management, commercial relations, and the smooth operation and organization of the facility.

Born in 1987, Silvano is a Swiss rider who has competed in both national and international events. From 2016 to 2019, he regularly participated in the prestigious Longines Global Champions Tour, competing in arenas such as Rome, Monaco, and Chantilly. In June 2019, with the motto #letsridethechance, Silvano began his commitment as UNICEF's first equestrian ambassador, advocating for children's rights and supporting initiatives in their favor. Currently, Silvano competes in CSI1*/2*/3* events and is coached weekly by Stefano Cesaretto.

STEFANO RISSONE

Horses are his life; he has always cared for them with passion, dedication, and expertise. A 2006 veterinary graduate, Stefano is a FISE Vet and FEI Vet professional. Alongside his freelance career, he served as the official veterinarian for the Italian team at the 2018 European Youth Championships and the Senior Driving World Championships.
