It is no longer sufficient to settle for less. Today, it is not possible to not give our best. This is why Miami-Dade wisely opts for a comprehensive investment for the FIFA World Cup 2026.

The significant difference lies in creating an overdimension of state, false job positions, bureaucratic structures, versus Miami-Dade's commitment to investing in creating more attractions to drive further development.

The allocation of this considerable sum far surpasses the funds previously allocated for sports events in the region, marking a milestone in the financial support provided by the county. With a detailed distribution of resources, including specific allocations for international football matches and a fund for a World Cup legacy project, Miami-Dade demonstrates its determination to ensure success and excellence in organizing this globally-reaching event.

  • While there were expressions of concern and questions during the deliberations regarding transparency in the spending plan and the justification of funds, the defense of the investment by local leaders highlights the potential economic benefits and international projection that the World Cup will bring to the region.

  • It is expected that this investment will not only boost tourism and stimulate the local economy but also enhance the reputation and appeal of Miami-Dade as a top-tier sports destination.

  • The preparation and anticipation of additional expenses related to organizing the World Cup 2026 matches demonstrate the commitment and seriousness with which the county is approaching this challenge.

  • With a clear focus on maximizing long-term benefits and ensuring an exceptional experience for participants and spectators, Miami-Dade sets a high standard in planning and executing large-scale international sports events.

How is the investment distributed?

The $49 million investment committed by Miami-Dade County for the FIFA World Cup 2026 is distributed as follows:

1. **Funding for international football matches ($21 million):** This amount will be allocated to the seven international football matches taking place in the region. Approximately $3 million per match is estimated to ensure the proper organization and logistics of these highly relevant sporting events.

2. **Legacy project fund for the World Cup ($3 million):** A $3 million fund has been established for a legacy project of the World Cup. While the specific details of this project have not yet been announced, it is expected to contribute to the long-term legacy and positive impact that the event will have on the region.

3. **Budget allocation for security services valued at $25 million:** This portion of the investment mainly covers expenses related to public security and other governmental services necessary for the efficient organization and management of the World Cup. These services include security, medical services, and other key aspects to ensure the success and safety of participants and spectators.

It is important to note that this investment will be carried out in two budgetary cycles, reflecting careful long-term planning by Miami-Dade County. The detailed distribution of resources ensures that all necessary aspects for organizing an event of this magnitude are covered, from match logistics to security and essential services for the successful development of the World Cup.

Milei en Miami: el discurso de la "Revolución Capitalista" y su impacto real en inversores internacionales (análisis para inversores y empresarios)

(Por Taylor y Maqueda desde Brickell, colaboración especial de Marcelo Maurizio) Frente a 10.000 personas en el American Business Forum de Miami,  ovacionado en reiteradas oportunidades, Javier Milei ejecutó perfectamente el guión que inversores conservadores esperaban oír: "Dos de cada tres argentinos apoyan este camino" y "no existe crecimiento económico sin defensa de la propiedad privada".  

La comunidad argentina y latinoamericana que ha huido del estatismo socialista, la audiencia perfecta para Javier Milei en Miami

(Por Marcelo Maurizio, con la colaboración de Rovmistrosky y Maqueda) Para entender por qué Milei eligió Miami para este discurso, hay que comprender la composición única de la diáspora argentina aquí. Javier fue recibido con aplausos, gritos, aplausos, “te amo” y por supuesto “viva la libertad …” por venezolanos, colombianos, brasileños, españoles y miles de argentinos que huyeron del estatismo socialista de los gobiernos de sus países.
