Spanish entrepreneur and former politician, Alejandro Agag is best known for pioneering sustainable motorsport. In 2012, he founded Formula E Holdings, launching the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship in 2014—the first-ever all-electric single-seater racing series. Under his leadership, Formula E has grown into a global platform for advancing electric vehicle tech and championing sustainability.
On this episode, Mo and Alejandro dive into the early struggles of getting Formula E off the ground—the highs, the lows, who backed him, who didn’t—and how it all led to a 15-race calendar and partnerships with some of the biggest brands in the world!
