The International Olympics Committee made Beijing’s dream of hosting the 2008 Games a reality, and gave a boost to many business leaders around the world. Today, when some 100 former athletes and associated luminaries gathered in Moscow, the IOC picked Beijing over Paris, Toronto, Istanbul, Turkey, and Osaka, Japan. Experts say markets may jump---- especially foe those companies associated with China or the Olympics, or both. That’s because a Beijing Olympics is expected to have a major influence on the country’s economic development over the coming years, as well as the many companies trying to tap its attractive market of 1.3 billion consumers.
