Wbfsh: a gust of new air

Bologna, April 8, 2021 – The World Breeding Federation for Sport Horses (Wbfsh) has recently undergone a refresh of its brand identity and is launching a new website.

The website, which has been introduced to the wider public on 07 April 2021, marks an important step in the organisation’s plans to increase its outreach into the breeding-, as well as the wider equestrian community.

In collaboration with the Equine Register, who custom built the new site, the WBFSH will use this new online platform to develop enhanced opportunities for all of its member studbooks with the aim of creating a vibrant community open to all breeders of sport horses.

The wbfsh.com website in its current format therefore represents the first step in the organization’s aim to reach out to the around 150,000 sport horse breeders worldwide and to offer its current 80 member studbooks a communications platform for information exchange and promotion. It highlights the groundbreaking scientific research work facilitated by the Wbfsh.
