Together, with their invited guests, they have a combined buying power of over £2 billion in the global motorsport, high performance and associated industries. Invited guests include over 90 Ministers, MPs, MEPs and Lords, leading motorsport and business journalists and VIPs.

Simon Leith of Stingray RV said, “Since we became members of the MIA last year we have sponsored a couple of networking events and it has been very rewarding for us. It was a real honour to be asked to be involved with such a high profile event and was a great opportunity to take some of the Stingray RV staff and also some clients to The House of Lords to enjoy the evening. It was also fantastic to spend time with some of the ‘Royalty’ of motorsport. It was also the perfect opportunity to get the Stingray RV brand in front of some very influential people from motorsport to Parliament.”
