Racing Data & Breaking Barriers
About this Event
Motorsport is one of the most technically demanding industries in the world. The margins are razor thin, the decisions happen in seconds, and the engineering behind it all rarely gets the attention it deserves.
On 25th August Tuesday evening, LinkedIn Local™ - Singapore brings you an evening with people who know this world from the inside.
Panellist: Nida Anis
Freelance Data & Motorsport Engineer
Attachment Engineer, Mercedes-AMG HPP

She reads live telemetry and supports race strategy in real time, at race speeds. She also co-founded Asian Motorsport, a news platform dedicated to telling the stories of Asian drivers and teams competing overseas that rarely make mainstream coverage.
Panellist: Dr Kimberly Kellyanne Tan
