GRRL! SUMMARY:
- LAURA JORDAN O’CONNELL and TATIANA CALDERÓN were featured speakers at Dublin’s inaugural European Motor Show, joining a lineup that drew over 10,000 visitors to the RDS. Their inclusion demonstrates the show’s commitment to showcasing diverse voices across motorsport, from broadcasting to racing performance.
- The two-day festival positioned itself as an inclusive platform where women’s perspectives in motorsport could reach mainstream audiences alongside industry legends like Christian Horner and Charley Boorman. This visibility matters – when women are represented on major stages, it normalizes their expertise in a space that’s still catching up.
- With Close Brothers Motor Finance signing on as headline partner for 2027’s return, the show’s commitment to featuring women speakers suggests we’ll see continued representation. The event’s focus on accessibility and inclusion, including autism-friendly hours, reinforces that progress in motorsport means opening doors for everyone who’s been traditionally excluded.
UPCOMING:
- European Motor Show 2027 – January 30-31, RDS Dublin
