Research priorities for the New Zealand sport events sector

NZTRI is working alongside Sport and Recreation New Zealand (SPARC) to set the research priorities of the New Zealand sporting events industry. The study is in two phases:

Phase 1: An online survey of event experts to determine a set of overall research ‘themes’. The outcomes of this initial analysis were used to inform the survey questions of the second phase.

Phase 2: An online survey of event-related organisations and stakeholders throughout New Zealand. In this second phase of the project, the research themes are further explored in terms of level of importance and specific research programme areas are identified.
