    CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR CAERDYDD EXECUTIVE BUSINESS MEETING: 3 NOVEMBER 2011 WORLD BOXING CONVENTION 2013 (WBC) REPORT OF CHIEF OFFICER (CITY DEVELOPMENT) AGENDA ITEM: 11 PORTFOLIO : TRANSPORT & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Reason for this Report 1. To enable Cardiff to host the World Boxing Council Convention 2013 and approve appropriate budgets to assist in developing the event programme. 2. To attract a World Title bout and Convention which will have an economic impact of up to £3.2m in the city economy 3. To enhance Cardiff’s reputation as an international sports capital and to generate significant global media exposure to promote the city on an international stage. Background 4. Over the last decade Cardiff has built an international reputation for the successful delivery of high profile sporting events, including; the Rugby World Cup; the FA Cup and Heineken Cup Finals, the Ashes Test and the Ryder Cup. Alongside this the city has developed a world-class sporting and visitor destination infrastructure. In recognition of this Cardiff was recently awarded the status of European Capital of Sport. 5. It is recognised that this programme of major sporting events has led to significant benefits for the city economy, including: attracting tourists and the additional consumer spend they bring into the local economy; world- wide media coverage and profile; increased civic and national pride and encouraging increased participation in sporting activities. 6. The World Boxing Council Night of the Champions and World Boxing Convention therefore represent significant opportunities for Cardiff to build on its established platform and to expand into a new events market, with the ultimate aim of becoming a recognised location for major boxing events.

The club was COMMENDED for its film programming and received a DISTINCTION for marketing. We were also officially named as one of the three ‘happiest’ film clubs in the UK in the new Filmbank Award. There’s only one club happier than ours and that’s possibly because they won £1,000 whilst we got £250. Still, money isn’t everything... is it? The full results are attached on page 2. Missing Mountaineer For those of you have may have been disappointed at the non-appearance of Amy Beeton at our screen- ing of 127 Hours on 17th September, let me tell you, there’s no-one more disappointed than me and I wasn’t even there! Apparently something came up at the last minute and Amy couldn’t make it. However, she very kindly told us about this two days before the event by sending an email to someone who was abroad at the time. You couldn’t ask for more, now could you? To make amends, Amy sent us what she would have said if she had been there to say it. It’s a bit late I know but you might like to read it on Page 3.
