Growing companies from across the county are being urged to attend a free event designed to help them find new customers and increase profits off the back of the Olympic games.

The Your Games, Your Business event will include a speech from Matt Rogan of Lane4, the consultancy firm run by Olympic gold medallist Adrian Moorhouse.

Mr Logan is an expert on helping businesses achieve sustainable benefits by capitalising on the London games.

He said: “We’re keen to ensure local businesses are not only aware of the wide range of opportunities, but also know what steps they can take to ensure their business takes full advantage of the Games, for both immediate and longer term commercial benefit.”

The event, organised by Business Link, is on September 6 at the Holiday Inn, Pear Tree, Oxford.
