Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) and Formula E have launched the ‘Driving Force Presented by PIF’, an innovative educational program designed to promote learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), with a strong emphasis on sustainability.
Driving Force Presented by PIF is a multi-dimensional learning program designed to engage and inspire students aged 8 to 18 to shape the future of mobility through interactive workshops, hands-on learning experiences, and digital resources.
With in-person workshops taking place across the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the United Kingdom and a comprehensive online learning program, the program will impact more than 50,000 students worldwide, marking its largest expansion since its launch in June last year.
Debuting in south Florida ahead of the April 12th Miami E-Prix, the program demonstrates Public Investment Fund’s commitment to advancing sustainable mobility, made possible through E360, its first-of-its-kind partnership uniting Formula E, Extreme H, and E1 electric powerboat racing. By inspiring the next generation of engineers, innovators, and sustainability leaders, the Saudi Fund is shaping the future of electric motorsport and sustainable technology.
