Good idea …make it an international event and sponser a winning purse, then register and own it…then look at advertising dollar associative with an international broadcasted event with residual broadcast internationally ,host the event and negotiate event housing and transport,(minibuses).
Don’forget llc. And insurance ,indemnity waivers to be signed before event…provi de medical services and specialists…provide provisional camera and equipment storage near event with security and police pre paid.
Then do this with any and all event planning.
