Welcome

Is long-term impact really shaping how international events are planned, chosen and measured - or is it mostly a good line in a bid document?

Plenty of people have a view. Very few have data.

BestCities Global Alliance is running this survey to change that. It takes about 10 minutes, depending on your role. Whatever stage you're at - all in, still weighing it up, or not yet started - your answer counts. We'd like to hear from associations, PCOs, destinations, venues and anyone else working on international events. In return, you can opt-in to get an early copy of the findings - evidence you can use in your own conversations.

Thank you for sharing your perspective.

This survey is being run by Strategic Membership Solutions, an independent research and consulting firm, on behalf of BestCities Global Alliance. Responses are collected through SurveyMonkey and stored on secure servers in the United States. Results are analysed in Australia by Strategic Membership Solutions and used only for this research unless you opt-in for additional communication. Responses are reported in aggregate only. Neither BestCities nor any individual destination will see your responses.You can read the privacy policy here, which explains how your information is handled and how to request access or deletion.
