The Gene Haas Foundation, the charitable foundation established by American entrepreneur Gene Haas, founder of Haas Automation and owner of the TGR Haas F1 Team, has pledged $1 million to Silverstone UTC to create a new Gene Haas Centre for Advanced Manufacturing at the home of British motorsport. The announcement was made today at Silverstone UTC during the F1 British Grand Prix weekend.

Earlier this week, a group of Year 10 and Year 12 students had the incredible opportunity to visit the TGR Haas F1 Team factory in Banbury as part of our celebrations for International Women in Engineering Day.
