    Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y Empresariales IMPACTO DEL MUTUA MADRID OPEN EN LA ECONOMÍA MADRILEÑA Autor/a: Ignacio Navalón Sánchez Director/a: Francisco Borrás Palá M ADRID | Abril de 2020 1 Resumen Este trabajo de fin de grado busca analizar cuál es el impacto económico que tiene la celebración anual del torneo de tenis Mutua Madrid Open, en particular el impacto para la economía de la ciudad de Madrid. El objetivo, por lo tanto, será estudiar ese impacto y analizar si las previsiones del torneo de cara al futuro son positivas. Para poder estudiarlo el trabajo se centrará en variables como el turismo, la generación de impuestos o la creación de trabajo directamente relacionados con el torneo, y se analizarán cuáles han sido las últimas decisiones y los acuerdos llevados a cabo entre la directiva del evento y el Ayuntamiento de Madrid para asegurar el futuro del torneo en la ciudad. Para analizar los datos económicos del torneo el trabajo se centra principalmente en los años 2017 y 2018, ejercicios los que se han podido obtener las fuentes de datos más abundantes y recientes. Los resultados del trabajo demuestran que el Mutua Madrid Open genera un efecto positivo para la economía madrileña con datos muy favorables, tales como el turismo generado durante el torneo y la promoción de la ciudad que este supone a posteriori. A diferencia de otro tipo de eventos deportivos de mayor envergadura, como un Mundial de fútbol, el Mutua Madrid Open se disputa cada año, lo cual ayuda a rentabilizar las inversiones que se realizan en infraestructuras y consigue que cada edición más gente acuda a disfrutar del tenis en Madrid.
