McLaren Racing and Udemy Announce Multi-Series Partnership

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- McLaren Racing and Udemy (Nasdaq: UDMY) today announced a multi-year partnership spanning the full McLaren physical racing portfolio. In a first-of-its-kind partnership, Udemy, a leading online skills marketplace and learning platform, will become the Official Learning and Skills Partner of McLaren Racing, including the McLaren Formula 1 Team, Arrow McLaren IndyCar Team, NEOM McLaren Formula E Team and NEOM McLaren Extreme E Team.

San Francisco-based Udemy will offer Udemy Business licenses across McLaren Racing’s people, empowering its team with flexible and effective learning opportunities, driving the upskilling and performance of McLaren.

The partnership is Udemy’s first venture into motorsports and underpins both brands’ shared ambition to deliver agile, expansive and comprehensive learning and development opportunities to help individuals achieve better personal and business outcomes.

Udemy branding will be featured on the NEOM McLaren Formula E Team’s race cars and team kit from Season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, and on the helmets of McLaren Formula 1 drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri during the 2024 F1 season.

Daniel Gallo, Chief People & Sustainability Officer, McLaren Racing, said:

“We are thrilled to welcome Udemy to the McLaren Racing family. Here at McLaren, we believe that our people are our biggest advantage and we are proud to have Udemy on board to support our team’s upskilling journey. We are excited to further unify our racing series alongside Udemy, while giving our people the opportunity to develop and grow.”

Greg Brown, President and CEO, Udemy, said:

“We are excited to partner with McLaren Racing to develop their team, from those in the driver’s seats and pit lanes to those running the business in their corporate offices. Udemy’s fresh and relevant course content will help McLaren maintain a high-performing team, staying ahead of fast-moving and ever-evolving trends in technology and business. We’re equally thrilled to support all four physical race series, demonstrating our commitment to the McLaren team’s learning journey.”
