Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) and Formula E launched the online STEM education platform 'Driving Force Presented by PIF' to expand the Driving Force program.

According to the official statement, the online platform will provide a backstage pass to the future of motorsport through STEM and sustainability education, offering a single, unified digital destination for young people, parents, and educators worldwide, with tailored experiences for each audience.

Students will have access to interactive challenges, quizzes, games, and rewards designed to make STEM learning fun and shareable, while parents will be able to explore content that helps them support their children’s interest in STEM and careers in future mobility. Additionally, educators will have access to ready-to-use classroom resources, lesson plans and activities that bring STEM and sustainability to life.

Mohamed AlSayyad, Head of Corporate Brand at PIF, said: “The expansion of the program is a significant milestone for PIF as we reinforce our commitment to the growth of electric motorsport, further strengthened by our partnership with Formula E. Through this powerful, unified program, we will continue to broaden access to STEM and sustainability learning, while accelerating the future of electric mobility in Saudi Arabia and across the globe.”

In turn, Julia Palle, Vice President of Sustainability at Formula E, commented: “We are thrilled to launch the next iteration of the Formula E Driving Force Presented by PIF. By centering our new content on the cutting-edge GEN4 car, we are bridging the gap between elite motorsport and the classroom. Our mission remains clear: to ignite a global passion for STEM through high-octane, gamified learning that prepares the next generation for the future of innovation.”

The Driving Force program was launched in 2025 to offer holistic education through three distinct delivery methods: live school workshops, teacher lesson plans, and anytime/anywhere online learning. So far, it has reached 111,200 young people through teacher-led content and live workshops in the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the United Kingdom.

Building on this momentum, PIF and Formula E have made enhancements, introducing a new kind of learning experience on the devices of young people in Saudi Arabia and across the globe.
