Our reports are also very useful to groups with other interests in the event, such as marketing companies, Olympic sponsors, research firms and tourism agencies. Even members of the IOC and other Olympic management entities digest our information on a daily basis as a way of keeping up with the complex and constant developments in this significant international movement. No matter what your particular reason for becoming more informed on the progress of the Olympics, we urge you to consider a subscription to AroundTheRings.com for original, exclusive reports from around the world on the next Olympic games.
Our correspondents are always keeping close tabs on the latest Olympic drug scandals as well as decisions and developments within the International Olympic Committee. One of the Olympic management decisions that consistently attracts the most attention is the awarding of host city rights for each of the upcoming events. At Around the Rings, we maintain the most widely used predictor of these hosting city decisions, the ATR Olympic Bid Power Index. This index allows us to numerically rank each prospective Summer or Winter Olympic sports site based on eleven key criteria that include:
- Ambiance
- Accommodations
- Cost
- Legacy
- Marketing
- Security
- Government and public support
Our figures are calculated based on numerous on-site visits and painstaking analysis by a team of experienced and vetted Around the Rings correspondents. Explore AroundTheRings.com to learn more about this index and see who's leading the race for the currently contested hosting rights.
