Prime Minister David Cameron assured the critics of London Olympics that the event would definitely boost Britain’s economy by £1 billion!
Mr. Cameron points out that this amount is guaranteed when 200 company chiefs and executives from Google to Goldman Sachs arrive on the eve of the games for the big business conference.
Mr. Cameron spoke about the economic potential of the Olympics in London during a Cabinet meeting on January 9 in Olympic Park to mark 200 days to the Games.
The Prime Minister said “I want the message to go out loud and clear, from tourism to business, sport to investment, we are determined to maximise the benefits of 2012 for the whole country.”
The details of contracts for new venues such as handball arena, aquatics centre and ArcerlorOrbit Tower were revealed during the meeting.
The games are expected to create 254 full-time jobs and the officials hope that the venues will be put to profitable use for mass weddings and corporate activities.
