Economic Impact
25
October 2003
There is a direct and indirect economic impact resulting from
an event spend; including the monies paid directly to those companies and
employees working on the event itself, then the goods and services those
companies and employees spend that money on within their community. Economic
impact numbers may play an important part in gaining political, financial, and
community support for an event.
