SportsEconomics possesses substantial direct experience in economic consulting in the sports industry, with specific and highly relevant knowledge of the economic impact of events, teams, and facilities. These studies are often used by sports commissions/authorities as well as local governments in their decision to publicly fund sports venues or events that may be hosted in their local community. 

Considering the controversy surrounding the funding of sports teams and events by the public, and the frequent use of economic impact studies in negotiations between commissions, governments and event organizers, it is critical to select a firm with a reputation for consistently providing an accurate assessment of economic impact. In addition to our extensive background in economic impact assessment, SportsEconomics has substantial experience in the negotiations process between governments and event organizers/facility owners, and in the explanation of results to various governmental committees and media entities.
