Mayor of London Entices US Companies to Participate in Games
With preparations for the 2012 London Olympics and Paralympics in full swing, the city is in a mad rush to get things going. Organizing an event of such magnitude is not an easy task, and London is trying its best to rise to the occasion. The honourable Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, on his latest visit to New York, has made a stupendous effort to unveil some of the business opportunities presented by the Games to a number of giant corporations, agencies and groups in the US. The idea behind his trip is to get these groups over to the UK, involve them in the setting up of the games, and help make them a success. A number of business opportunities exist at the Games. Setting up logistics, catering and transportation are the basic tasks. To ensure that London is equal to the task, the city is being transformed into a business magnet, with uninterrupted transport links, thousands of new homes and offices and other infrastructure. All this has naturally been good for the commercial side of London, new businesses are showing more interest in real estate and office design and relocation specialist firms such as Claremont Group Interiors are showing marked increase in inquiries. CompeteFor, a contract management agency has been given the task of managing the contracts for all the myriad activities taking place at the Games. The construction work for the Olympic Village /Park is under way in East London. The residential housing, nearly ten thousand in number, is being complemented by top notch research facilities, a large amount of office space and a commercial shopping center. All this is apart from the top-class sporting facilities coming up as part of the Games infrastructure, where games and cultural activities are to be held. The Park is slated to be the largest in Europe once completed and the mayor is keen to see it succeed. He believes this is an ideal opportunity for US businesses to step in and establish them in the UK market.
