The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) has launched a website to help small businesses take advantage of opportunities brought about by the 2012 Olympic Games.

The ‘London 2012 Business Network' site will to allow small businesses to register as potential suppliers, compete for sub-contracting opportunities and get advice on how to meet criteria on corporate social responsibility.

The move has been welcomed by the Federation of Small Businesses, which has previously expressed concern over the lack of opportunities for smaller companies.

"The delivery of the London 2012 Games will provide opportunities for businesses of all sizes in many sectors," said John Wright, FSB national chairman.

"We are particularly pleased that large contractors will be compelled to make public, via the network, the sub-contracting opportunities that will be most suited to smaller companies."
