NORTH East firms which have won a slice of the Olympics action will be sharing their success stories at an event tomorrow.

A series of events called Team Tomorrow kicks off at Newcastle Racecourse where businesses will be explaining how they have managed to pick up work on the back of the 2012 London games. The opening event will see three companies – FaulknerBrowns Architects, Baynes Travel and BizVision – share their stories.

Mike Hawkins, North East 2012 regional business lead, said: “Whilst much of the Olympic Park in London is now nearing completion, with North East companies having already won over £100m worth of business related to the Games – we would have liked to have won more of the business for companies here in the region, particularly during these challenging times.

“I’m determined to see these new events making an even greater impact and providing a legacy in themselves, to help companies to go on and win future business contracts – that is why we need North East businesses to back them. The opportunities are real and available to all. Companies in all sectors and of any size can feed into the supply chain somewhere and win new business – but you’ve got to be in it, to win it.”
