Legacy Lives 2009 will ensure that you hear about and contribute to the very latest global best practice on securing long term and sustainable benefits from major sporting events.
Legacy planning and implementation is of real value to cities and organisations contemplating a bid, in the process of bidding or have won the golden prize of becoming a host city be it for Summer or Winter Olympics and Paralympics, Asian, Commonwealth, Masters, Pan-Am or Island Games and World Cups in Football, Rugby and Cricket plus many more important events out there to bid for and win!
There is now no hiding from the fact that no established event rights holder, be they the IOC, IPC, CGF, FIFA, ICC or IRB et al will take your bid seriously unless effective legacy planning and implementation is at the very heart of your campaign and bid book.
Vancouver 2010, London 2012, Sochi and Glasgow 2014 are all exemplars of how developing a real understanding of maximising impact and delivering long term benefits are now integral to the bidding, planning and hosting of major sporting events......and play such an important part in winning the rights to host the event.
Legacy Lives is the only international conference to focus specifically on 'raising the bar of our understanding' on just how to create and deliver these legacy benefits. The 2009 conference programme in Vancouver reflects this responsibility as highlighted below. |

Delegates will have, on registering, selected to attend one of the six legacy workshop streams and will join the speakers and facilitators engaged in this session. We envisage circa 65 delegates in each stream and whilst all the streams will vary in format, most will consist of all or some of the following:
- two or three short presentations from leading international experts in the specialist subject area
- small group break-out and workshop sessions
- management games and scenario planning exercises
- latest research updates and information for the delegates to take away.
Each stream will have two of three facilitators to help run the above programme plus a scribe who is responsible for collating all of the key points and outputs for feeding back to the main conference in the second plenary session on Day Two. |
