Business opportunity for Rugby World Cup
A resource showing businesses how to take advantage of Rugby World Cup 2011 will be released this week, coinciding with the Game and Host City Allocation draw this Thursday.

• Providing information on venues, match schedules
and forecasted attendance levels
• Providing
information on Rugby World Cup visitors and their
expectations
• Giving business communities tips on how
to be a local or regional supplier
• Developing a plan
for business to take advantage of a major
event
• Linking businesses to advice and
training
• De-mystifying the Rugby World Cup
organisations
Auckland Chamber CEO, Michael Barnett, believes that every community across New Zealand that will host a game or is playing host to a team stands to gain from the event and will benefit from the resource.
The resource will be available on www.auckland2011.com and will be added to as ideas are shared between regions
