The inaugural meeting of ‘The Chairman’s Club’ was hosted today by the Prime Minister Gordon Brown at 10 Downing Street.
The Chairman’s Club - made up of London 2012's commercial partners - has been created by London 2012 sponsor Deloitte, the professional advisory firm, and Think London, London’s foreign direct investment agency.
London 2012 Chairman Sebastian Coe and Olympics Minister Rt Hon Tessa Jowell MP spoke at the meeting. Discussions focused on how the partners will be making the most of their sponsorship programmes in light of the current economic climate, the significance of talent within global businesses and how they can leverage their partnerships to ensure the Games can create a business legacy after 2012.
Sebastian Coe, Chairman of LOCOG, said: ‘We had some great British and international companies round the table today, all looking at how their association with the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games will have a meaningful impact across the UK – as well as work for them on a commercial level. In these challenging times, we all need to look at creative ways in which we can make the most of these partnerships.’
Think London is already working with a number of the London 2012 sponsors to support them with expansion plans in the run-up to the 2012 Games.
