The international event, which brought together 4,000 athletes from across Europe, has come to an end. The Rector of the University of Salerno, Virgilio D'Antonio, expressed his satisfaction: "Two unforgettable weeks. Hosting thousands of young people on our campus felt like building a single, large community united by the values of friendship and sport. It served as an ideal bridge between Salerno and Europe, echoing the great tradition of the Scuola Medica Salernitana. This is an experience we must not let fade." The flag of the European University Sports Association was then passed to Split, which will host the next edition in 2028.
