The Sport Impact Summit team will make its debut this December in Dubai with a groundbreaking event that brings together world-class athletes, sports organisations, teams, academics, the green finance community, and corporations in a collective effort to harness the power of sport to drive global change.

Taking place at the Atlantis, The Palm, on 4th and 5th December, 2024, this innovative summit aims to create compelling narratives, leveraging the influence of sports stars to inspire a billion people to take action for both the health of the planet and their own well-being.

"We are thrilled to welcome McLaren Racing as an Impact Partner," said Sean Morris, Co-Founder of Sport Impact Summit and former first-class cricketer. "McLaren Racing is a global brand and its dedication to innovation and sustainability is truly inspiring. Its track record of driving change within the motorsport industry sets a powerful example for others to follow. We are excited to work together to amplify the role of sports in shaping tomorrow’s world, highlighting the work McLaren is doing to use its extensive platform to advocate for positive change.

“At the summit, we will demonstrate how the sports industry can take pole position in tackling the most pressing environmental and social challenges of our time, as we work together to inspire over a billion people to take action for a healthier planet and a more equitable future."

McLaren Racing has long been at the forefront of sustainability efforts within motorsport. Its comprehensive sustainability strategy focuses on creating a more sustainable, diverse and inclusive sport while leaning into technology and innovation, as well as its global partner network, to make a positive contribution to society and climate action..

McLaren Racing will actively participate in the Summit, sharing insights from its sustainability journey and engaging with other stakeholders to explore new ways to drive positive change. Attendees can look forward to thought-provoking discussions, case studies, and collaborative sessions that highlight how the intersection of sport and sustainability can lead to a more equitable and environmentally conscious future.

“Sustainability is at the core of everything we do at McLaren Racing, and we're committed to using our platform to advocate and inspire for positive change,” said Kim Wilson, Director of Sustainability at McLaren Racing. “The path to net zero isn’t a linear journey and the challenges we collectively face are incredibly complex. Being involved with Sport Impact Summit allows us to connect with like-minded organisations, share best practice and learnings to help tackle the environmental challenges we face and continue to make a positive contribution to society."

As we drive towards December, Sport Impact Summit will continue to reveal its lineup of Impact Partners, sponsors and Impact Champions. The message is clear: the game is on, and failure is not an option.
