The vision driving the EQI initiative is to facilitate recruitment processes and integrate more nations into the biathlon, cross country, and nordic combined events on the international arena.

The goal is to ensure that all nations have access to competitive equipment at affordable prices. By doing so, the initiative aims to decrease the total expenses associated with race support facilities, infrastructure, and personnel. This strategic shift allows a greater portion of national funding to be allocated towards developing the respective national teams - encompassing elite athletes, recruits and juniors - thereby fostering the overall growth of the sport.

Equaliski International, a non-profit company, was founded by individuals who are committed to proactive measures for creating a sustainable future for international competitive skiing.
