Quote:
Foreign investment and contracts won by UK firms have contributed to the four-year target being reached in just 12 months.

"UK Trade & Investment has played a key role in helping British companies maximise these opportunities and the result is a £11.06bn boost to the UK economy from the Games, reaching our four-year target in just over a year."
