World Skate are delighted to announce a new partnership with Dropbox Sign which will simplify how athletes and member federations complete agreements around the world.

By using the Dropbox Sign API, World Skate will embed signing directly into Infinity, its core athlete and event management platform, providing users with a World Skate-branded experience.

Across its international network, World Skate will use Dropbox Sign to send documents covering event requirements, regulations and participation agreements for athletes and member federations to sign electronically. Once signed, the documents and their status will feed back into Infinity, allowing World Skate to manage registrations within the wider tournament workflow. The integration will support World Skate’s athlete and tournament processes connected to World Championships and the Olympic Games.

“As an international federation with a wide network of national federations, athletes, event organisers and partners around the world, we manage a significant volume of agreements and documentation year around. This agreement with Dropbox will help us make these processes simpler, faster and more efficient, supporting World Skate’s continued growth and international operations,” said Sabatino Aracu, President of World Skate.

“The best technology fits seamlessly into the experience an organisation provides, making important interactions simpler for the people it serves,” said Jim Rudall, Head of EMEA at Dropbox. “By embedding Dropbox Sign into the registration journey, World Skate can give athletes and member federations a consistent, World Skate-branded way to complete agreements, while providing the organisation with greater visibility, security and traceability.”

“Before integrating Dropbox Sign, signatures were handled through a separate manual process. Dropbox Sign has made this significantly more efficient, giving our teams greater visibility and control over documentation at every stage. We can now manage, track and retrieve documents more easily, reducing administrative work by more than 100 hours each year. This gives our teams more time to focus on other important work and creates a smoother experience for everyone involved,” said Elisabetta Mariani, Director of Operations at World Skate.
