London 2012
The London 2012 Games are not just
about sport - they're also about business.
Billions of pounds will be
spent over the next five years in developing the infrastructure and
delivering the Games. Thousands of contracts will be issued, from
major construction projects to the supply of pens and paper.
Contracts will also be issued for the deconstruction,
redistribution and removal of a range of venues, facilities and
overlay.
It is not just for big
business, there will be substantial opportunities for small and
medium sized businesses.
'There will be
opportunities for many, many companies, either directly or
indirectly, to be involved in and benefit from delivering the
extensive range of goods, services and resources needed to stage
the Games - from one person home-based operations to
small-to-medium enterprises and big corporations.'
Paul Deighton, London
Organising Committee Chief Executive
This is a once in a lifetime
opportunity. It's not just about preparing for and winning Olympic
contracts for your business. It is also an opportunity for your
business to be on the international stage, to showcase your
business and deliver long lasting benefits.
