Manage episode 400656988 series 3463615
February 12, 2024 – The Indy 500 is only 104 days away. In April of 2023, The Omnibus Show was fortunate to welcome guest Marissa Andretti, Vice-President of Andretti Motorsports. To get you revved up for this year’s Indianapolis 500, The Omnibus Show is replaying the Andretti Podcast, which was the most popular episode from Season 1.
Marissa Andretti is the daughter of Indy Racing’s Michael Andretti. (Her grandfather is Mario and her brother is Marco – also very familiar figures here in central Indiana during the month of May.)
She grew up around the sport, spending time and learning from her second family – a racing team. She studied marketing, business, and sports management and officially joined the family business in 2015 as a Client Relations Representative on Andretti Autosport’s INDYCAR program. In 2017, Andretti transitioned into the role of Marketing and Branding Director. She now serves as a Vice President within the Andretti Autosport family of race teams and oversees the team’s philanthropic initiatives via The Michael Andretti Foundation.
Additionally, she has taken on the role of Managing Director for Andretti Technologies [ATEC], where she assists in developing strategy and project fruition, centralizing departments across the team.
Andretti Global, the parent company of Andretti Autosport, broke ground on its new 575,000-square-foot global racing and technology headquarters in December of 2022. Marissa was part of the groundbreaking ceremony, along with Mario and Michael Andretti. The state-of-the-art facility is set to open in 2025 and will add up to 500 jobs to the local community by early 2026. Cutting-edge technology will be used to optimize the performance of the campus and to create an environment that encourages the best from employees.
The new facility will serve as the headquarters of day-to-day operations for Andretti’s current NTT INDYCAR SERIES, INDY NXT (formerly Indy Lights) and IMSA programs, global commercial functions of Andretti Formula E and Andretti Extreme E and the advanced research and development business of Andretti Technologies.
