Sometimes leaving a mark means removing one.
As proud sponsors of the McLaren Formula 1 Team, our logo has a prominent spot on the team's cars during the electrifying Grand Prix season. But we're not satisfied with brand exposure alone. During select races, we seize the chance to hand over this coveted spot to a game-changing nonprofit, creating a ripple effect of impact worldwide.
We call this Sponsor X.
Helping create a world where anyone can thrive
McLaren and Smartsheet both believe that we owe it to the next generation to prepare them for the challenges ahead. Smartsheet may not be in the business of driving at extreme speeds, but we are dedicated to making work matter for individuals, their companies, and their customers. And, like McLaren, we believe in supporting those who are championing the power of creative thinkers and explorers.
