Results tagged “Birmingham” from Birmingham Post - Lifestyle Blog
A few weeks ago I wrote a column in The Post casting doubt on claims that events in the city actually generate the money which they are purported to generate.
It was claimed, for example, that the Tory conference at the ICC would bring £20 million into the local economy. Still not noticed the boom in sales of Ferraris in the city? No, me neither.
I don't doubt that big events raise a company's/city's/person's media profile but I remain sceptical about the level of economic largesse.
I'm putting together a map of Birmingham's pubs and bars on Google Maps (for full version click here), and would love any readers out there to chip in with their own ideas.
