Abstract
The growth of global sporting events has been substantial,
with countries dedicating billions of dollars towards an event
that lasts roughly a month. This study gathers data on three
economic indicators and analyzes the observed effect of
hosting a mega event on each of the indicators in question.
The observed effect was studied at different levels (time
following the event), ranging from 1 year to 8 years.
