Kiro Race Co (\"KIRO\"), het nieuwste team dat als CUPRA KIRO deelneemt aan het FIA Formula E World Championship, is verheugd om aan te kondigen dat het eigenaarschap van het team is uitgebreid met een groep zeer strategische investeerders, nu het seizoen 2024\/25 van de volledig elektrische motorsportserie verder gaat.<\/p>\n
Naast hoofdinvesteerders David Kaplan en Bennett Rosenthal bestaat de investeringsgroep nu uit: Golden Globe-winnende acteur en producent Idris Elba; eigenaren van Major League sportteams Tony Ressler, Larry Berg en Shaun Neff; media dealmakers Navid Mahmoodzagedan, Steve Bornstein en Rick Hess; en strategische adviseurs Jeffrey Assaf, Caleb Kramer en Michael Woronoff.<\/p>\n
Deze investering onderstreept het gedeelde geloof in het immense potentieel en de groeiende commerci\u00eble aantrekkingskracht van Formule E na de overname van Kiro Race Co door The Forest Road Company, een in Los Angeles gevestigde investeringsmaatschappij, in oktober 2024.<\/p>\n
Met onge\u00ebvenaarde expertise in het bedrijfsleven, de media, de sport en de entertainmentsector, betekent de diverse investeerdersgroep het begin van een boeiend nieuw tijdperk voor KIRO en zal het een centrale rol spelen in de strategische positionering van de groei van het team op lange termijn als een sportfranchise.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kiro Race Co eigendom omvat:<\/strong><\/p>\n Verenigd door een gedeelde visie van uitmuntendheid, brengt elke investeerder een uniek perspectief in de wereld van de autosport om niet alleen de positie van het team te versterken, maar ook om de wereldwijde impact te vergroten en de betrokkenheid van fans te stimuleren.<\/p>\n Dit nieuws volgt op een reeks recente mijlpalen voor KIRO: het team begon zijn Formule E-reis met de aankondiging van een belangrijk meerjarig samenwerkingsverband met het Spaanse automerk CUPRA, scoorde een mijlpaalfinish tijdens zijn competitiedebuut in de S\u00e3o Paulo E-Prix in december 2024 en onthulde een opvallende nieuwe gezamenlijke livery om het CUPRA KIRO-partnerschap te vieren tijdens de Mexico City E-Prix in januari 2025.<\/p>\n Jeremy Tarica, Managing Director van The Forest Road Company zei:\u00a0<\/strong>\"Sinds het begin van onze reis in de Formule E heeft Kiro Race Co verschillende belangrijke mijlpalen bereikt, van een meerjarige samenwerking met CUPRA tot een top 10-klassering bij ons debuut in de competitie. De aankondiging van vandaag markeert de volgende stap in onze reis en onderstreept ons geloof in het groeipotentieel van de Formule E en onze toewijding om grenzen te verleggen. Met onze uitzonderlijke investeerdersgroep die zakelijk inzicht, culturele bekendheid en ondernemingszin meebrengt, zijn we klaar om het succes van KIRO te versnellen en onszelf te vestigen als een leidende kracht in de autosport en daarbuiten.\"<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff Dodds, CEO van Formula E, zei:\u00a0<\/strong>\"De komst van deze nieuwe investeerdersgroep markeert een transformatief moment voor Kiro Race Co en haar partners.\u00a0<\/strong>dient als een klinkende bevestiging van het strategische groeiplan. Deze indrukwekkende groep brengt\u00a0<\/strong>onge\u00ebvenaarde expertise en een divers, veelzijdig perspectief dat de groei zal katalyseren, niet alleen\u00a0<\/strong>voor het team, maar voor het hele kampioenschap.\"<\/p>\n ...aantekeningen van SP.<\/p>\n Wereldsnelheidswedstrijd (worldspeedchallenge.com<\/a>) Formula E\u2019s newest team, US-based Kiro Race Co, has announced an expanded
