Executive summary 1.1 Objectives of the study This April the city of Belek in Turkey s Antalya Province will host the annual SportAccord Convention, in which approximately 1500 representatives of various sport associations from all around the world will participate. A majority of the participants will stay in the city for the week of 6 11 April 2014. This study addresses a question that also applies to many similar events: What does hosting such an event bring to the host city? Hosting such an event requires significant investment from the host city, hence understanding the impacts of the event is crucial in assessing if the investment has been reasonable. This study assesses three types of impacts that can be attributed to such an event direct economic impacts, indirect economic impacts, and intangible impacts. For SportAccord Convention 2014 we estimate the following impacts: Economic impact: Direct economic impacts US$2.25 million; Indirect economic impacts US$1.59 million. Intangible impacts: Encourage business activity, attract future major events to the city, promote Antalya as a sport oriented social and cultural destination, and promote a healthy lifestyle 1.2 Estimated economic impacts Direct economic impacts comprise all spending of nonresident participants in the event. Local companies benefit from that spending, which would not exist without SportAccord Convention. Indirect economic impacts occur as the initial spending triggers a ripple effect through the value chain of the local economy. This revenue, in turn, is reinvested all along the value chain, which increases the suppliers revenues as well. For example, when a hotel receives payment for its services, it spends part of this revenue on purchasing food, energy, and various services, in order to meet guests needs. Induced impacts, which occur when increased economic activity causes a rise of incomes in a region, are then spent on goods and services, were not assessed due to the relatively short duration of the event. US$2.25M Direct economic impacts US$1.59M Indirect economic impacts Based on the number of Convention participants, the number of days they are expected to spend in Belek, and predicted 1 consumer behavior, we estimated the total direct economic impact of the event will be US$2.25 million. The largest share of direct spending will go to hotels and restaurants (83.6 percent). The transportation, social-and-cultural services, and retail industries are also expected to benefit from the direct impacts of SportAccord Convention. Indirect economic impacts will be felt along the whole value chain, 1 We will compare our prediction with the actual figures and survey responses from delegates after the Convention. supporting the industries mentioned. We estimate the total indirect economic impact will reach US$1.59 million. 1.3 Expected intangible impacts Intangible impacts are impacts which cannot be quantified in the short term, but contribute to the achievement of a city, region or country s wider socioeconomic goals. The intangible impacts are potentially even more important in the long run than an event s short-term economic impact. We believe that SportAccord Convention will support the Turkish government s 2023 Strategic Plan and the region of Antalya s development plan through several intangible impacts: Encouraging business activity in areas related to the event by supporting development of social networks and intercultural contacts Attracting further major events to Antalya by demonstrating the region s ability to host such events Promoting Antalya as an important global destination for sporting and cultural activities by hosting a significant number of delegates from all over the world and publicizing the event through global media Inspiring healthy lifestyles by promoting sports and the hosting of sports events To summarize, hosting SportAccord Convention could boost Belek s economy by an estimated US$3.85 million and, perhaps more importantly, contribute to Antalya and Turkey s achievement of its longer-term development goals. SportAccord Convention 2014 Economic Impact Study 01

Economic impact 2.1 Impact mapping Prior to quantifying the economic impacts of the event, we need to understand the areas in which those impacts will occur. We assessed two types of economic impacts: Direct impact is the change in sales in those industries that initially benefit from spending by the Convention s delegates and staff (e.g., hotels, restaurants, transportation, social-andcultural activities, retail, and others). This impact is most directly associated with the participants spending (delegates as well as organizers). We only included the local spending of non-resident participants in our study. Local-resident spending cannot be attributed to SportAccord Convention, because we assume they would spend their money on something else if the event did not happen. We also did not include spending received by companies located outside Belek, since it cannot be counted as having an economic impact on the city s economy. For this reason, we did not include participants and exhibitors fees received by the event s external organizer. Indirect impact is the change resulting from the expansion of spending by the Convention s delegates and staff throughout the supply chain of local industries. This supply chain is composed of companies related to those in the industries that sell directly to the Convention s delegates or staff. (For example, a hotel buys goods and services to provide lodging for its guests. The more it buys, the more its suppliers must increase their production, and so forth.) 02 PwC SportAccord We limited the study to economic impact, expressed in additional sales or output. We did not consider changes in jobs and income, both of which we assume will be very limited due to the short duration of the event. For the same reason, we did not assess induced impacts, which occur when increased economic activity causes a rise of incomes in the region, which are then spent on goods and services. Exhibit 1: Map of event s economic impacts Direct Indirect Hotel and restaurants Food, beverages and tobacco Agriculture, hunting, forestry and fishing Electricity, gas and water Real estate activities Other industries Inland transport. Activities of travel agencies Retail sale of fuel Coke and refined petroleum Financial intermediation Other industries Mapping areas of direct impact is based on the expected behavior of participants. They will use hotels and restaurants, transportation and other services. They will most probably buy some merchandise in retail stores and they will attend social and cultural activities at or nearby the convention center. The indirect impacts are based on the order of significance in which the expected Retail Real estate activities Water transport Renting of machinery and equipment Financial intermediation Other industries Social and cultural services Renting of machinery & equipment Financial intermediation Electricity, gas and water Real estate activities Other industries Renting of Machinery & Equipment and other business activities Social and cultural services are a part of the industry Other community, social and personal services in the source input-output model Financial Intermediates and indirectly measured financial intermediation services

behavior of participants affects the surrounding economic environment. To be able to map indirect impacts of the event, we used an input-output model of the Turkish economy that describes the connection within the industries in terms of intermediate consumption. This model shows what value of goods and services an industry must purchase from other industries in order to create products or services for its customers. We then ranked the indirect impacts in order of significance, with the top indirect impact the most closely linked to the direct input. Using this approach, we created a map in Exhibit 1 of the industries affected by the Convention. 2.2 Direct economic impact As noted, we considered the direct economic impact of the event as all the additional revenue brought to the companies and other entities within the host city that can be attributed to spending by non-residents. SportAccord Convention 2014 in Belek/ Antalya will attract approximately 1500 delegates, approximately 35 of whom will be accompanied by an additional person (partner or spouse). In addition, 65 organizers will be supporting the event. All these participants will stay in the convention hotel and the other hotels specified by SportAccord Convention. While catering is included in participant fees, there will still be minimal spending on food and beverages in local restaurants. We estimated that direct spending on hotel and catering services will be US$1.88 million. Transportation during the event will be provided by the organizers and so the costs are included within participant fees. Still, we estimate that participants and their accompanying persons will use some local transportation services. We assumed that the mode of transportation used will be taxis. We estimate that those services will generate revenues of US$98,600. In addition, a majority of convention participants will spend some money on sporting and cultural events and on buying goods from local stores. We estimated that spending on sporting and cultural activities is will be US$9,900, while spending on retail was projected to generate US$262,000. We estimate that the total direct economic impact of this event will reach US$2.25 million.

2.3 Indirect economic impact The indirect economic impacts of the event are the additional revenue received from various rounds of re-spending by the participants. The industries that include businesses that sell directly to event participants are those that benefit from these indirect impacts. The size of these effects is calculated with the use of multipliers, which reflect the connections between various industries. It should be noted that we used multipliers for Turkey in this study, due to the unavailability of data for the city of Antalya specifically. Therefore, our calculation of indirect economic effect is a broad estimation. We estimated direct spending on hotel and catering services to amount to US$1.88 million. In turn, hotel and catering will spend this money on payment for electricity, gas, and water; for purchase of goods from wholesalers, food-and-beverage companies, and tobacco companies; as well as payment for agriculture, hunting, forestry and fishing products. Moreover, businesses supplying products and services to the food companies represent another round of indirect impact, eventually linking hotel services by varying degrees to numerous other economic industries. Using these linkages, we estimated that the indirect impact of the hoteland-restaurant industry on the Belek economy will be US$1.45 million. We estimated a direct impact of US$98,600 on the transportation industry. In turn, taxi companies will spend on petroleum, retail sale of fuel and other services. Consequently, companies in these industries will spend this money on other products and services, which serve as inputs for their business processes. We therefore estimated that the transportation industry s indirect impact on the local economy will be US$51,000. Exhibit 3: Indirect economic impact per industry Industry Hotels and restaurants Inland transportation Retail Industries benefiting the most from indirect impact Food, beverages, tobacco Agriculture, hunting, forestry and fishing Electricity, gas and water Real estate activities Activities of travel agencies Retail sale of fuel Coke and refined petroleum Financial intermediation Real estate activities Water transport Renting of machinery and equipment Financial intermediation We estimated that spending on sporting and cultural events and retail will be US$272,000. Based on our findings above, we estimated that the indirect impact of these services will be US$94,000. Adding these impacts together, we project the total indirect economic impact of this event to be US$1.59 million.

Taking into account the direct and indirect economic impacts, we have estimated that the total economic impact of this event will be US$3.85 million. Exhibit 4 shows the breakdown of the economic impact of SportAccord Convention on the Belek economy, by direct and indirect components. Exhibit 4: Economic impact of the SportAccord Convention (US$) 2.25M 1.59M 3.85M Direct economic impacts Indirect economic impacts Total We estimated that spending by Convention participants on sporting and cultural events and retail will be US$272,000. SportAccord Convention 2014 Economic Impact Study 05

Intangible impacts Besides short-term economic impacts, every major event also has intangible impacts associated with the wider socio-economic goals of the host city and country. As opposed to direct and indirect economic impacts, which occur only once and tend not to significantly change the economic situation of the host city significantly, intangible impacts support the longerterm development of the region. In that sense, the intangible impacts of a major event can be even more important than the immediate economic benefits. SportAccord Convention is expected to have several intangible impacts, such as: Encouraging business activity in areas related to the event by supporting development of social networks and intercultural contacts Attracting additional major events to Antalya by demonstrating the region s ability to host such events Promoting Antalya as an important global sports destination by hosting a significant number of delegates from all over the world and publicizing the event through global media Inspiring healthy lifestyles by promoting sports and the hosting of sports events The development of new business opportunities through facilitation of networking and exchange is one of the main aims of this event. We can assume that this will benefit Antalya, as well as its businesses and institutions. This supports the execution of the Turkish government s Strategy 2023 for economic development, which aims to improve the business environment at the regional and local levels, and encourage improvement of the investment climate as well. At the regional level, the government has selected Antalya as one of the four cities in which it will make significant investments to increase tourism. These investments include constructing largescale event spaces that comply with international standards and building adequate transportation systems and accommodations. These investments, along with Antalya s favorable climate and topography make it a prime location for global conventions and sports events. Antalya s rich cultural heritage also adds to its appeal. The fruits of the government s strategy have already begun to be realized, as Antalya has been chosen to host four major sporting events in the past year alone. These include the World Archery Championship, the World Tennis Championships, the Turkish Airlines World Golf Final and the FIFA Under 20 Soccer World Cup. These championships not only welcomed current and veteran players, but also sports enthusiasts of all ages and were extensively covered in both domestic and international media. The World Archery Championship alone was broadcast on nine television channels and Tiger Woods s international tee shot at the Turkish Airlines World Golf Final garnered especially high international media coverage in the press and social media outlets. These events, along with on-going infrastructure investments, demonstrate the government s longterm commitment to positioning Antalya and Turkey as premier global sports event locations. Hosting a prestigious event such as SportAccord Convention, with top delegates from global sports associations and global media coverage, certainly contributes to the government s strategic plan. In 2013, over 360 accredited television and press delegates attended SportAccord Convention, providing extensive international media coverage on 121 unique media platforms. In fact, the convention has become an important platform for global organizations to communicate to the world, as more than ten global sports organizations made important announcements during last year s Convention 1. One of last year s highlights was when the International Olympic Committee revealed their shortlist of candidate sports for possible inclusion in the 2020 Summer Olympic Games. We expect the media effect of the Convention to be even greater this year since the media coverage has been extended by two days and additional television channels 1 World Combat Games Saint Petersburg Press Briefing, PwC Event Sustainability Press Briefing, Baku 2015 European Games Press Briefing, SportAccord Doping- Free Sport Unit Press Breakfast, IRB Rugby World Cup Seven Moscow 2013 Press Briefing, FINA Swimming Championships Doha 2014 Press Briefing, IAAF World Athletics Championships Moscow 2013 Press Briefing, Rio 2016 Press Briefing, Eurosport-Kazan Universiade 2013 Press Briefing, 2020 Olympic Games Candidates Press Briefings (Istanbul, Tokyo, Madrid) and IOC Press Briefing with IOC President. 06 PwC SportAccord

such as Euronews will be broadcasting from the event. Additionally, the major television channel Euronews will air promotional commercials prior to the start of the convention. These will be financed directly by SportAccord to promote not only the Convention but Antalya and Turkey as premier global sports event locations as well. Recent events, along with on-going infrastructure investments, demonstrate the government s long-term commitment to positioning Antalya and Turkey as premier global sports event locations. Above all, SportAccord Convention has become an important vehicle for popularizing sport and healthy lifestyles worldwide. Hosting 1500 people from all around the world for a full week also provides an excellent opportunity to promote Antalya s beautiful landscape and rich cultural heritage, while encouraging visitors to visit the city again for personal or business reasons. SportAccord Convention 2014 Economic Impact Study 07

Appendix A Methodology Direct impact was calculated based on the number of people who will participate at the event and their spending during this event. Indirect impact was calculated based on an input-output (I-O) model (a mathematical model that describes the flows of money between industries within an economy, and based on which Type I multipliers can be calculated. These multipliers provide information about the change in sales for industries down the value chain, caused by a one-united States-dollar change in demand in a certain industry). An input-output table for Turkey was taken from WIOD (world inputoutput database 1 ). Based on this table, we calculated Type I multipliers using the following formulas: 1) X=(I-A) (-1), where (I-A) (-1) the Leontief inverse matrix, I an n x n identity matrix (n=35 industries), A an n x n transformed matrix (n=35 industries), X the n x n matrix of industry output (n=35 industries) 2) Xj = i n xij, i - the supplying industry, j - the receiving industry, Xj - Type I multipliers. The indirect impact was calculated based on the following formula: Indirect impact = Direct impact * Type I multiplier - Direct Impact. For example, city X attracts an additional 1,000 delegates, each spending US$30 per day, for a total of US$30,000 in new spending per day. If the delegates stay 6 days, the city would accumulate US$180,000 in new sales. This US$180,000 would be distributed to hotel, restaurant, social, transportation, and retail trade sectors in proportion to how each delegate spends his or her US$30. These industries then buy goods and services from other local businesses. This creates indirect impact. Induced impact can be calculated as the change in economic activity in the region resulting from employees spending income earned through direct or indirect impacts of spending by the convention s delegates or staff. For example, hotel employees spend the income earned on housing, food, education, and other goods and services. However, because this convention is a short-term event, restaurants, hotels, and shops are unlikely to hire additional employees or pay them additional money for work related to this convention. Therefore, we have not included this type of impact in our study. The use of multipliers to assess indirect economic impact has its limitations. These include 2 : Lack of supply-side constraints: The most significant limitation of economic impact analysis using multipliers is the implicit assumption that the economy has no supply-side constraints. That is, it is assumed that extra output can be produced in one area without taking resources away from other activities, thus overstating economic impacts. The actual impact is likely to be dependent on the extent to which the economy is operating at or near capacity. Fixed prices: Constraints on the availability of inputs, such as skilled labor, require prices to act as a rationing device. In assessments using multipliers, where factors of production are assumed to be limitless, this rationing response is assumed not to occur. Prices are assumed to be unaffected by policy and any crowding out effects are not captured. Fixed ratios for intermediate inputs and production: Economic impact analysis using multipliers implicitly assumes that there is a fixed input structure in each industry and fixed ratios for production. As such, impact analysis using multipliers can be seen to describe average effects, not marginal effects. 1 http://www.wiod.org/ 2 Australian Bureau of Statistics 08 PwC SportAccord

For example, increased demand for a product is assumed to imply an equal increase in production for that product. In reality, however, it may be more efficient to increase imports or divert some exports to local consumption, rather than increase local production by the full amount. No allowance for purchasers marginal responses to change: Economic impact analysis using multipliers assumes that households consume goods and services in exact proportion to their initial budget shares. For example, the household budget share of some goods might increase as household income increases. This equally applies to industrial consumption of intermediate inputs and factors of production. Less applicable for small regions: Multipliers that have been calculated from the national I-O table are not appropriate for use in economic impact analysis of projects in small regions. For small regions, multipliers tend to be smaller than national multipliers since their inter-industry linkages are normally relatively shallow. Inter-industry linkages tend to be shallow in small regions since those regions usually don t have the capacity to produce the wide range of goods used for inputs and consumption. Instead, they import a large proportion of these goods from other regions. In addition to these limitations, it needs to be noted that in the absence of an I-O table for Antalya we used the I-O table for Turkey as a whole for this study. That substitution resulted in a less accurate assessment, predominantly due to the following factors: Multipliers which were calculated based on the I-O table for Turkey may be higher or lower than those which would be calculated based on an I-O table for Antalya. Not all goods are produced in Antalya. That means part of the revenue obtained from delegates will leave the region immediately, in order to pay for the purchase of goods produced elsewhere. As a result, the indirect economic effect of the convention may be slightly lower than our estimate. SportAccord Convention 2014 Economic Impact Study 09

Appendix B Assumptions Basis for the assumptions We based our assumptions on several sources: Interviews with the event organizers regarding participants behavior on previous similar events Discussions with event hotel managers regarding expected participant behavior and the costs of logistics This year s agenda and activities PwC s experience with comparable events Assumptions will be verified with help of an onsite questionnaire, which will be used to understand the actual behavior of event participants. The section of the questionnaire that will be used for this purpose can be found in Appendix C. Assumptions 1 We estimate the number of people who will take part in the Convention will be as follows: 65 Staff (SportAccord Convention and Local Organising Committee) 1,500 delegates, and 35 accompanying persons. 2 We estimate the number of nights and days stayed in Belek for staff as follows: 10 nights and 11 days; delegates, 5 nights and 6 days; accompanying persons 2 nights and 3 days. 3 We calculated spending for hotel lodging based on the following assumptions: a) The average price per night: US$187.6 per night for Susesi Luxury Resort US$217.4 per night for Xanadu Resort Hotel US$209.3 per night for Maritim Pine Beach Resort US$152.9 per night for Spice Hotel&Spa. We also assume the average price per night at these hotels will not change prior to the start of the convention. 4 We calculated spending on restaurants based on the following assumptions: a) Since each of the convention hotels is all-inclusive, the majority of meals will be eaten on-site and will be included in the hotel bill. b) On average, a delegate and an accompanying person will have one dinner in ala carte restaurants on-site. c) On average, a staff member will have two dinners in ala carte restaurants on-site. d) An average per ala carte dinner is US$27.00. e) On average, a delegate will have two dinners and one lunch that is not included in the participant s fee. f) On average, a member of staff will have three dinners that are not included in the participant s fee. g) On average, an accompanying person will have one dinner and one lunch that is not included in the participant s fee. h) An average bill per lunch is US$30.00 and per dinner is US$50.00 1. 5 We calculated retail spending based on the following assumptions: a) An average check per person is US$50.00 for staff members and delegates. b) On average members of staff and delegates will spend twice this amount. 1 Average lunch and dinner prices are calculated using numbeo.com and interviews with the organizers 10 PwC SportAccord

c) An average check per accompanying person is US$80.00 2 and he or she will spend this amount three times. d) Each staff member and each delegate will spend an additional US$10.00 per day on small purchases. 6 We calculated spending on socialand-cultural services based on the following assumptions: a) An average price per ticket per participant for the cultural tours organized by the hotel is US$126.50. b) An average price per ticket per participant is between US$10.00 50.00, with a majority of activities are between US$30.00 50.00. Hence we used an average per ticket price of US$40.00. c) Number of participants expected to participate in the cultural tours organized by the hotel is 50. d) Number of participants expected to participate in the athletics activities is 100. 7 We calculated spending on transportation based on the following assumptions: a) Staff members, delegates and accompanying persons will use the transportation services provided by the organizers between the convention center and other hotels and to and from the airport. b) Shuttle buses and taxis will be the only modes of transportation used. c) On average, the price per trip will be US$10.00. d) On average, a delegate and a staff member will use this service six times (roundtrip). e) On average an accompanying person will use this service four times (roundtrip). 2 Average retail checks are calculated using numbeo.com and interviews with the organizers SportAccord Convention 2014 Economic Impact Study 11
