CHARITY RUN AND HELP - IT´S EASY A total of 471 runners have purchased start numbers for the Mattoni Olomouc Half Marathon through not-for- profit organisations and in so doing also supported a good cause! Others help out indirectly through individual fundraising, raising money for specific charitable projects by taking part in races. The Run for a Good Cause project not only helps not-for-profit organisations raise funds but also brings runners joy in knowing they’re doing something that will benefit others. In 2018, RunCzech is collaborating with 20 not-for-profit organisations from all over the country. They presell start numbers for RunCzech races and use the funds raised for charitable causes. Main charities partner for Mattoni Olomouc Half Marathon is Trend wheelchair users Olomouc.

    Foreign Market Entry Modes of Running Events -The Internationalization of Göteborgsvarvet Half Marathon

    Foreign Market Entry Modes of Running Events -the internationalization of GöteborgsVarvet Half marathon Jenny Cheng and Hanna Sundell Graduate School Master of Science in International Business and Trade Master Degree Project No. 2011:12 Supervisor: Harald Dolles Abstract Foreign Market Entry Modes of Running Events - The Internationalization of GöteborgsVarvet Half Marathon Jenny Cheng and Hanna Sundell Supervisor: Harald Dolles Sports events are becoming increasingly globally important in social and economic terms. The number of people traveling abroad aiming to participate in those events has strongly increased in recent years. However, in the world‘s largest half marathon - the ‗GöteborgsVarvet‘ - held annually in Gothenburg, Sweden, the rate of foreign participants is still relatively low. Although a wide range of studies have been conducted within sports and event management, the attention towards developing an internationalization strategy for such kind of events is relatively low. The aim of the thesis is to fill this gap, by analyzing the case of GöteborgsVarvet and developing possible foreign market entry modes. The modes discussed in the thesis rank from cooperative forms, e.g. joint venture and marketing alliances, to wholly owned modes, like sales outlets and qualification races. The survey is based on qualitative and quantitative data. The results indicate that, in addition to choosing a foreign market entry mode that fits the specific event, there needs to be a close fit between destination and event in order to be able to attract foreign runners. Furthermore, in order for the internationalization of GöteborgsVarvet to succeed, it requires for the organization of GöteborgsVarvet to truly find or develop motives for it.
