🏃♂️🌟 Breaking News! 🌟🏃♂️ Well it happened… I’m in the TCS London Marathon 2025! Who would’ve thought? With the ballot odds being what they are, I figured my chances were about as good as winning the lottery. But here I am, all signed up and ready to run like I’ve stolen something. Now, here’s where it gets interesting – and trust me, you’ll want to pay attention. This is a one-off, exclusive opportunity that you simply cannot miss: be the FIRST person to sponsor me! That’s right, your name will be immortalised at the very top of my sponsorship form. Think of the bragging rights! 🤩 But wait, there’s more! The second, third, and fourth sponsorship spots are also up for grabs. 😏 I’ve chosen to support the Alzheimer's Society’s, a very important and worthy cause. Even though I didn’t have to choose a charity, I believe in making every step count. Now, I should mention, I’ve never run a marathon before. Not once (hadn’t even considered it until watching this year’s marathon on TV). So, if you have any tips, tricks, or secret running hacks, I’m all ears. Seriously, I have no idea what I’ve signed up for!!! Ready to be part of this adventure and make a difference? Click the link to my charity page below and be the hero I need. 🦸♂️🦸♀️ https://lnkd.in/ekkjDtFr Let’s do this together! 💪 #LondonMarathon2025 #AlzheimersSociety #Charity #RunningForACause #ExclusiveOpportunity #SponsorMe

Good ideas supporting a good cause: The first year of beVisioneers: The Mercedes-Benz Fellowship is on the home stretch. Just under 100 young people from India, South Africa and six European countries have been taking part in the program since June 2023, and will complete it by May 2024.The most promising projects and ideas range from an ambitious CO2 sink and water-absorbing asphalt to environmentally friendly materials for the construction industry.   Mercedes-Benz supports beVisioneers with donations from proceeds of the auction of the most valuable car in history – the 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe. Funded by Mercedes-Benz and implemented by the non-profit organization The DO School Fellowships, beVisioneers enables young people to pursue their ideas in the field of sustainability and environmental protection.   The second year of the global program is to be rolled out from May 2024 in 35 countries with 500 participants. Next year, beVisioneers will continue to grow: The aim is to support up to 1,000 young people per year from 2025 onward. And I can’t wait so see what they’re coming up with in the future.

A week on, what are your thoughts? Last week, the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom unveiled the latest charging infrastructure figures, and since then we've already hit another significant milestone - the installation of the 60,000th charge point, proudly a char.gy charge point. The growth in our industry continues to capture significant attention, but what else do these numbers reveal about the UK's public charging network? Let's delve into the details. #DfT #EVs #EVCharging #QuarterGrowth #OnStreetCharging #char.gy

Things we love to see....the future of f1 is bright and diverse.

For SKIDATA CSR is not just a buzzword. We are thrilled to announce a new initiative: Second Life for IT Equipment. Starting now, SKIDATA GmbH and SKIDATA Austria GmbH will donate outdated IT equipment from all our subsidiaries in Austria to a non-profit organization. Here's what this means: 🌱 Environmental Benefits: Our IT equipment will be refurbished and sold, extending its lifecycle. Unrepairable equipment will be recycled according to legal standards. ❤️ Social Benefits: This initiative secures jobs for people with cognitive disabilities and offers training opportunities for young people, helping them enter the labor market. Customers will find affordable devices locally. 🤝 Our Partnership: We are collaborating with anderskompetent gmbh, a non-profit company in Salzburg dedicated to supporting individuals with various challenges and needs. On July 4th, we toured their facility and were impressed by their dedication and efficiency. This initiative aligns with our commitment to social and environmental responsibility. Let’s make a positive impact together!   WE ALL ARE CSR!   #CSR #Sustainability #EnvironmentalResponsibility #SocialImpact #LetswelcomeCSR #anderscompetent #SKIDATA #SecondLifeForIT #NonProfitPartnership   Find more information here: skidata.com/careers

Silverstone is not just a home race for Lewis Hamilton, it's also a place with special resonance in his mission to build a more diverse and inclusive Formula One. Four years ago, it was during a private test at Silverstone post-Covid, and pre-Austrian Grand Prix, that Lewis challenged us to do more and go further following the murder of George Floyd, by using our platform to advocate against racism and for greater inclusion. The result was the all-black livery of the W11, and catalysed the team's Accelerate 25 programme. Three years ago at Silverstone, the Hamilton Commission published its report on Formula One. Some took this as a hostile act, some resisted it as "Lewis's thing" rather than relevant for the sport, others were open-minded and embraced the mirror it held up to our community - and asked the question, how can we lean into changing that? At the same time, we announced the Ignite partnership between our team and Lewis's fantastic foundation, Mission 44. That work incubated some incredible initiatives that are guided today by Jason Arthur and his team at Mission 44, as they expand their scope and ambitions. That's why I believe this announcement by Formula 1 is so important - because it shows the sport as a whole, and not just individual drivers or teams within it, are prioritising a more representative and inclusive F1 as a source of strength and performance in the future. Lewis may be moving on from Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team at the end of the season, but I hope that when we reflect on our legacy together, this work sits very high up the list of achievements we can be proud of - alongside all those wins and world championships. And special little shout-outs to some of the folk in the background who've kept the wheels turning on this, most notably Jo Livingston, Marc Hynes and Mark Hamlin.
