Worldwide Olympic Partner Coca-Cola, through its bottling partner Coca-Cola HBC, is supporting young people in Italy as they prepare to enter the workforce, through the expansion of its #YouthEmpowered initiative.
International Olympic Committee news
The Coca-Cola HoReCa Masterclass: Towards the Olympic Winter Games initiative is being run during the 2025-2026 academic year and focuses on the HoReCa (Hotel, Restaurant and Catering) sector, where the need for qualified talent remains high. Participants aged from 16 to 30 will take part in four online masterclasses led by company managers and partners, offering valuable insights in hospitality, tourism, marketing and sales.
The Olympic Games represent much more than a sporting event: they are a unique opportunity to generate lasting value for territories and people. With this edition of #YouthEmpowered, we want to offer a concrete growth opportunity to students, providing them with tools, experiences and visions that can bring them closer to the world of work consciously. We believe investing in tomorrow’s talents is the most authentic way to leave a positive and generative legacy.
Luca Santandrea General Manager Coca-Cola Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games
To recognise and further support exceptional participants, 10 students will be awarded scholarships to continue their education. They will also gain exclusive access to a job-shadowing experience alongside professionals working on the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games, offering them a unique opportunity to work with professionals involved in the organisation and management of the event.
The project is part of Coca-Cola’s commitment to delivering a lasting social legacy in the host country of the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games, developed in collaboration with a non-profit organisation in the field of entrepreneurial education.
Operating in all the countries of the Coca-Cola HBC Group, #YouthEmpowered is aimed at bringing young people between the ages of 16 and 30 closer to the world of work, providing support to help them learn about their potential, knowledge of their talents and the development of characterising professional skills that will help them enter the world of work. Since 2018, the #YouthEmpowered initiative has reached more than 250,000 young people in Italy. The programme includes a range of youth education initiatives, offering practical tools and the know-how of industry professionals. These include workshops, scholarships and mentoring schemes, with a particular focus on supporting girls in STEM and helping young people develop essential soft skills.
The Coca-Cola Company is the longest-standing partner of the Olympic Movement, having supported every edition of the Olympic Games since 1928. Coca-Cola has also been a proud partner of the Olympic Torch Relay for more than three decades, and was a founding member of The Olympic Partner (TOP) Programme. Its renewed partnership until at least 2032 extends the Company’s association with the Olympic Movement to a historic 104-year relationship.

AAPG leads education and dialogue around how subsurface expertise can underpin future power generation at its recent Subsurface Energy to Power Workshop in Houston, Texas.
TULSA, Okla., Jan. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As global power and electricity needs skyrocket due to electrification, data center growth, and the adoption of AI-driven technology, scientists are working rapidly to expand grids and meet projected demand. BP suggests global electricity consumption could rise more than 40 percent by 2035 and double by 2050. Data center demand alone could nearly double by 2030, according to S&P Global.
To help drive solutions, AAPG recently hosted the Subsurface Energy to Power Workshop in Houston, Texas. The two-day workshop was designed to lead education and dialogue around how subsurface expertise can underpin future power and electricity growth, uniting geoscientists, drilling and subsurface engineers, technologists, operators, and energy industry CEOs in insightful, cross-disciplined discussion.
Uniting Leaders from Every Geoscience Arena
The program brought together experts from nearly every geoscience application, including geothermal, hydrogen, natural gas, lithium, uranium, and more, to explore how the energy industry can ensure secure and reliable power at scale.
“As electricity and power demand grow at an unprecedented pace, the role of geoscience has never been more critical,” said AAPG Executive Director Tom Wilker. “AAPG serves as a leading voice for geoscience, ensuring that subsurface science informs the solutions needed to deliver secure, reliable energy worldwide.”
Future development and infrastructure needs for energy and power will require a cross-disciplinary approach. Workshop speakers included leaders from oil field services, academia, government, major oil, geoscience, banking and finance, geothermal and renewable energy, energy data and analytics firms, and more. Companies represented included: Amazon Web Services, Equinor, Enverus, Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, GeoPrime Energy, Geothermal Gradient, Renewable Energy Institute, Rystad Energy, SLB, University of Alabama, The University of Texas at Austin, and Woodside.
Fostering Cutting-Edge Thought Leadership
Discussions and panels spanned the lifecycle of electrical grid expansion or generation projects, incorporating technical geoscience at every turn. Resources like geothermal, natural gas, hydrogen, lithium, and emerging power pathways all depend on subsurface understanding.
“This workshop focused on the applied geoscience that underpins technologies such as geothermal energy, subsurface energy storage, lithium, and uranium. Just as importantly, it provided an educational forum to share best practices, case studies, and emerging research, helping equip geoscientists and engineers with the skills needed to support power systems,” says Susan Nash, director of education, research, and innovation at AAPG.
Workshop themes included:
- Rapid conversion to electricity for natural gas, geothermal, hydrogen, and lithium energy
- Project types and development
- Resource characterization and mapping for natural gas, geothermal, lithium, hydrogen, uranium, and sand
- Business and financing of energy projects
- Technology integration for geothermal, hydrogen generation, and conversion of oil and gas wells
- Land, legal, permits, tax credits, and other considerations
- Data centers and community-scale solutions and deployment strategies
- AI, environment, and water management
Having an energy-inclusive solution with a deep regard for water and the environment is a unique approach that AAPG is well-positioned to provide. Technical highlights from the workshop included a presentation from Kirsten Marcia, president and CEO of DEEP Earth Energy Production, which featured a hybrid geothermal and natural gas solution to generate energy in Saskatchewan; talks covering small modular nuclear, to which uranium in Texas will be key; and how AI can and will be used as a means of environmental protection in the future.
AAPG’s efforts to forge and lead credible, technically grounded conversations and education at the intersection of subsurface and power are underpinned by support from some of the most influential companies in the energy sector.
Thank you to the event sponsors: GSI Environmental, Halliburton, AAPG Foundation, AAPG Divisions, AIPG-TX, Altair, Barrell Energy, Petrabytes, and Rock Flow Dynamics.
AAPG plans to host similar cross-disciplinary workshops to guide industry thought leadership and solve global challenges, including Opportunities with Legacy Assets: AAPG’s Fourth Annual Orphan, Abandoned, Idle, and Marginal Wells Conference in February, and its AI and Machine Learning in Subsurface Workshop scheduled for summer 2026.
