A distinguished track record

In being declared “the best ever” Olympic Games by Juan Antonio Samaranch, the former IOC President, the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games set the benchmark for all future sporting events and positioned Australia as the world-leader in major sporting event delivery – a position that Australian companies have since built upon at numerous major sporting events held in Australia and throughout the world.

Australian event specialists have played key roles in the successful hosting of major international sporting events in Australia, including IRB Rugby World Cup 2003, Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games, AFC Asian Cup 2015, ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 and Rugby League World Cup 2017, and this strong pedigree continues with this year’s hosting of the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games and with the ICC World T20 tournament to be held in Australia in 2020.

On the international stage, Australian companies have led the way, shaping the delivery of every Olympic and Paralympic Games held since Sydney 2000, as well as FIFA World Cups, IRB Rugby World Cups, ICC Cricket World Cups, Commonwealth Games and various regional major events, such as Asian Games, Asian Cups and Pan-American Games.

Australian expertise has, therefore, played a pivotal role in enabling countries throughout the world to leverage the hosting of major international sporting events to enhance their global image, develop sustainable infrastructure and achieve positive social outcomes by encouraging higher sports participation rates.
