Mamana says NYC Tourism is not resourced for 2028
Maloney asks whether funding is set aside for 2028 and how tourism investment has shifted. Mamana says budgets have been fairly flat since 2006, the baseline was recently restored a bit, and NYC Tourism is not resourced for another big event including 2028.
And to that point, do we have funding put aside for 2028?
And can you speak to shifts in NYC tourism investment over the past few years if we've been increasing it?
Our budgets have been fairly flat since 2006.
Our baseline was recently restored a bit, but it doesn't allow us for these kinds of campaigns.
It allows us to kind of keep the lights on and do what we do internationally.
But as of now, we are not resourced for another big event.
Including the 2028 event that we know of.
Yes.
Any other questions?
