2012 Procurement Event
Venue: Pride Park Stadium
Date:Monday 23rd March 2009
Introduction
In the run up to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympics Games, businesses will be awarded an estimated £6bn worth of contracts linked to hosting the Games. Whilst businesses are benefiting from these contracts, many businesses including women owned businesses, Black and Minority Ethnic businesses and disabled business owners are missing out on these opportunities. This event is specifically aimed at encouraging more diverse companies from across the East Midlands to compete for and win Games related contracts.
It's not just about building world-class stadiums - contract values start from a few thousand pounds and range from supplying catering, IT hardware, merchandising, coach driving services and even aerial photos of the Olympic Park - you'd be surprised at what's on offer.
You may never have considered that the London 2012 Games could open up opportunities to your business, but 26 companies in the region have already secured contracts supplying the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), 43 per cent of them small and medium sized (SMEs). Many more have won work supplying the ODA's contractors and are preparing to compete to win future work.
This unique event brings together a panel of experts to show you how your business can compete for and more importantly win contracts.
They will show you:
• Where to find out about contract opportunities
• How to put your business in the shop window
• How to position your business to win
• What ongoing support is available
