Gail Hamilton and Emy Ritt, Director of International Relations for the Gay Games, worked with Dr. Rohlin, Kent State University, and Dr. Nessrine Omrani at the Paris School of Business on an economic impact study for the 2018 Paris Gay Games.  This five month project resulted in an extensive dual-language survey on spending that was administered to over 4,600 participants immediately following the August 2018 event. According to this analysis, the 2018 Gay Games had an impact of almost €66 million on the Paris economy.  https://www.paris2018.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/20190111-CP-Paris-2018.pdf
