Here’s an Olympic business fact: How many people watch the Olympics? Even with the low U.S. ratings of the Sydney Games, more than 3.7 billion people tuned in—making it the most watched sport event ever. Nine out of every ten individuals on the planet with access to television watched some part of the Olympics. The world’s eye will soon be turning to Salt Lake.
Just how prepared are the venues for the Winter Games? The answer to this and other questions are at the Chamber’s Gold Medal Seminar next Monday, July 16th.
