Ian Lucas MP urging businesses to compete for Olympic glory

Wrexham MP Ian Lucas has reminded businesses in his constituency to bid for a share of Olympic glory. As the Olympic games 2008 kick off in Beijing, Mr Lucas is urging businesses to register at the London 2012 business site, www.CompeteFor.com for one of the business contracts for the games.

Mr Lucas said: “I know some businesses have expressed concerns that the benefits of the Olympics may not reach them. I would urge business from Wrexham – and from all across Wales – to use the Compete For site to ensure their voice is hear in the run up to 2012.

“There are real benefits for Wales to be had from the Olympics, and real benefits for Welsh businesses.

”The eyes of the world will be on China in the coming weeks and the eyes of the world will be on Britain in four years’ time.

“Wrexham has already had several venues endorsed as Olympics training sites – and I would be delighted if Wrexham’s businesses, too, could share in the 2012 Olympics.”
