Connected Stadiums: Realizing Qatar’s Vision of Creating a Legacy Program
摘要
This case study brings together the intricacies involved in creating a legacy program out of a mega sporting event, FIFA World Cup 2022, through the perspective of one of the outcomes of the legacy program itself: IT-based venue management solutions organization, Intaleq. The case provides an overview on how Intaleq responded to the various criticisms on hosting a compact world cup, assessing the environmental impact of ensuing infrastructural developments for FIFA, and underlying logistical issues. The case also questions the effectiveness of this innovative solution along with the feasibility of risk mitigation strategies devised by Intaleq.
