Autosport announces all-new Autosport Business Exchange

LONDON, 13 December 2024 – On 29 January 2025, Autosport will debut its inaugural Business Exchange, scheduled for the morning of the esteemed Autosport Awards. These events mark the beginning of a year-long celebration honoring Autosport’s 75th anniversary

The Autosport Business Exchange is a high-level industry conference that will bring together leading figures from the motorsport and technology industries as well as the sports investor and sponsorship communities for discussions and networking. Zak Brown, the CEO of McLaren Racing and newly minted F1 Constructors’ World Champion will be the keynote speaker and share his unique perspective across F1 and the other global racing series in which McLaren teams participate.

“There is no better way to launch Autosport’s 75th anniversary year than with an Autosport Business Exchange and Autosport Awards double header,” said James Allen, President Motorsport Business and F1 Liaison said. “For 75 years both fans and the industry have looked to Autosport for news, insight and authority. This year we are excited to host business gatherings at venues from Miami to Monaco to Austin as we expand the Autosport Business offering across content making it the most important brand in the space.”

The newly reimagined Autosport Awards will take place on 29 January, 2025, at London’s iconic Roundhouse, bringing together elite drivers, industry leaders, teams, and celebrities for an evening celebrating excellence in motorsport. The evening is the highlight of the racing social calendar and will celebrate the best of the industry, across all the motorsport series, including those just starting out in their careers and those who have been fundamental in the development of the sport for decades.

The expanded Autosport Awards program reflects the sport’s dramatic evolution and its surging global popularity. This milestone year marks both the 75th anniversary of Autosport and the FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
