The six-week, 48-match Tournament promises to be a total Rugby experience for everybody involved, from the estimated cumulative global television audience of 4 billion to the 95,000 international visitors expected to attend and from the 20 competing nations to the range of sponsors and official suppliers. Given the scale and level of investment in the event and in challenging economic conditions, much interest has focused on the scale of the economic impact on both the local New Zealand economy and also the broader global sports economy. Rugby World Cup has grown markedly since its first iteration with a cumulative television audience of 300 million in 1987 growing to 4.2 billion1 for Rugby World 2007 and spectators increasing from 600,000 to 2.25 million. Participating countries has risen from 16 in 1987 to 94 in 2007 with the number of countries in which the Tournament is broadcast up from 17 to 202.
