Executive Summary
To win the right to host an Olympic Games, a city must jump through numerous
hoops held by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). It is not an easy
process, with several stages and several rounds of voting. The bid for London
2012 began in 2003, the date of the deadline for the application of host cities,

Games, some 7 years before the event even began.
