Building the Impossible with Beth Paretta: Paving the Road to the Indy 500

Join CREW Detroit for an inspiring morning in Lovett Hall at The Henry Ford with keynote speaker Beth Paretta, a trailblazer in motorsports and a powerful advocate for women on and off the track. As the Vice President of Sporting for the FIA Formula E electric global racing series and the founder and owner of Paretta Autosport—the first woman-forward team to compete in the INDYCAR series—Beth brings a unique perspective from the fast-paced world of professional racing.
In her keynote, Beth will share candid insights on leadership, risk-taking, and the power of building unstoppable teams. She will talk about how breaking barriers sometimes means creating what doesn’t yet exist and how her journey to the Indy 500 wasn’t about following a path—it was about building one. Her story is one of innovation, resilience, and leading with purpose—from the fast lanes of racing to the front lines of change.
This energizing breakfast session is a must-attend for leaders, entrepreneurs, and anyone passionate about redefining what’s possible.
