ECONOMIC IMPACT REPORTS
CLEAR, DATA-DRIVEN INSIGHTS INTO THE ECONOMIC VALUE YOUR EVENTS, ATHLETICS PROGRAMS, AND INSTITUTIONS GENERATE FOR LOCAL COMMUNITIES
CSMG provides comprehensive economic impact reporting for events, athletics departments, conferences, universities, sports commissions, and community organizations. Whether you’re evaluating the effect of a single event or assessing year-round activity, our reports quantify how visitors, operations, and programming contribute to local spending, jobs, tax revenue, and regional economic activity.
Our goal is to provide partners with clear, digestible, and defensible findings that support funding conversations, community partnerships, stakeholder presentations, and long-term planning.

Our Methodology
CSMG uses established economic modeling frameworks combined with verified attendance, event, visitor, and operational data to estimate total economic activity. We translate findings into clear takeaways that help partners understand the broader financial footprint of their events and programs. Our reports prioritize clarity, accuracy, and relevance for both internal and external audiences.
Why it Matters
Understanding economic impact gives properties, institutions, and communities a measurable view of the value they generate. These insights support grant applications, justify capital investments, strengthen sponsor and city relationships, validate event performance, and help organizations communicate their footprint to stakeholders. With clear data, partners can better advocate for resources and demonstrate ROI beyond attendance or viewership.
