We are proud to be playing our part in encouraging more diversity at our own Team and within the industry and here are just some of the initiatives we're involved with and the steps we're taking.
Encouraging more women and girls into F1 and motorsport-related industries is a key cornerstone of our Accelerate 25 programme. First launched in December 2020, our ambition is for at least 25% of all new employees at our Team to come from under-represented groups, in each year up to and including 2025.

Our partnership with the Stemettes, an award-winning social enterprise who aim to inspire and support girls, young women and non-binary people into STEM subjects, falls into this bracket too. Through our partnership, we welcome hundreds of budding engineers to our factory for panel events with our Team members centred around key engineering themes. Our upcoming 'Ask, Grow, Network' event will give attendees an exciting opportunity to learn from our female engineers who will hopefully prove to be inspirational role models for the young attendees.
