符合条件的 & 不合格的费用
The purpose of the 体育营销激励计划 is to help ease the financial burden destinations or venues experience when they host competitive sporting events, 以及, incentivize sports rights holders to bring events that are beneficial to 维吉尼亚州’s economy.
The needs and priorities will be different for each sporting event, so it is imperative to quickly begin planning discussions so you can maximize the use of these funds.
All expenses should be used to support economic recovery from the COVID pandemic or the resulting negative economic effects.
Documentation: No matter how you choose to use the funding, documentation of any decision-making will be key. Receipts or paid invoices will be required for reimbursement.
A copy of the RFP/Bid and the signed contract will be required. Contracts signed prior to December 7, 2021 do not qualify. Event contracts MUST be signed and submitted no later than December 31, 2022 and the event MUST take place no later than June 30, 2024.
These lists are extensive and represent the most common types of expenses, 但它们并非包罗万象. Even though an item may be found in a list, it does not guarantee reimbursement. If there is a question 百老汇会员注册 eligible items, please contact Horne at (电子邮件保护).
