(London.CityRegions.com, April 06, 2013 ) Glasgow, UK -- Legacy 2014, which is the department charged with maximizing sporting, economic, and social impact of the Glasgow games, has recently been praised by London 2012 and British Olympic chairman, Lord Coe. He expects the Scottish even to “take to another level” London's general success in melding socially-improving volunteering and public-health programs while achieving a lasting commercial advantage for local business.
Coe is the former chairman of the London organizing committee of the Olympic Games, and has a formal advisory role for the 2014 Games. He visited Glasgow last week in order to meet with the city's 2018 Youth Olympic Games bid representatives.
He met with the Scottish firms, as his his duty as the Prime Minister's Olympic legacy adviser. He met with the Scottish firms which won contracts within London in order to assess the longer-term benefits of the involvement in the games. Scottish companies that most benefited from the 2012 games in London include Glasgow IT company BiP Solutions. The company designed a “portal” for smaller companies to bid for contracts, while the Bonnybridge catering equipment company also found great profit in the games.
Coe commended the delivery teams, stating: "I am loathe to keep talking about the 'lessons to be learned' from the Olympics by Glasgow because actually Glasgow is doing a really good job and it is not as if they are waiting for outside help. I have been conscious of a Glasgow team travelling to virtually every sporting event I've been to in last four to five years, But it is important that they all learn from best and most current levels and standards. Particularly with what I call the 'spiritual side' of the games, Glasgow will be able to build on our experience and hopefully take it to another level because that's what you want out of events."
