Or any McLaren car for that matter. From their origins in the 1960s, McLaren are one of the best known and most successful supercar manufacturers, excelling on the road and in Formula 1. They were pioneers in the use of carbon fibre in motor racing, and among the first to embrace battery technology.From their Technology Centre in Surrey, itself an architectural marvel, they design and produce some of the most advanced vehicles ever seen.Harry has had a long career in automotive design including with Ariel, Aston Martin, Jaguar LandRover prior to McLaren, and will share something of their design ethos and give us a glimpse behind the scenes of an automotive powerhouse.Matt Hine, Head of Business, Lexus LiverpoolA car is so much more than a means of getting from A to B. It can represent who we are or who we aspire to be, and for many of us it's a place that reflects our taste, lifestyle and cultural preferences, as much as our homes.For this reason Lexus designers continually challenge the conventions of automotive luxury, striving to expand the horizons in both products and services to create unique, expectation-surpassing experiences for each customer.Matt will tell us more and share some amazing stories in relation to the design philosophy in LexusIan Briggs, Design Director, Briggs Automotive Company.According to CAR Magazine, “Mono is there for when the Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren et al. feel a bit too quiet, too soft, too tame, too dull. And if they don’t feel that way now, they will after the Mono”.Harry might disagree with some of that but there's no denying that the BAC Mono is an incredible machine. It's essentially a 'Formula One car for the road' to quote Jay Leno. Designed and built in Liverpool, using such exotic materials as graphene and niobium , it's exported to 40 countries, broken a whole host of performance records on the track and is widely considered as the best driver’s car around.Having started the company with his brother Neill, Ian has racing in his blod and will share with us some of his passion, and the story of their amazing creation.About Rise and DesignRise and Design lasts for approximately three hours and includes networking both before and after the talks. There’s also a chance to pitch at the end of the speaker presentations – a friendly, informal way to share your idea or project. We encourage all delegates to stay for the post-event networking – it’s one of the most valuable parts of Rise and Design. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/liverpool/rise-and-design-design-in-the-automotive-sector/100001737148260209 - **Event Categories**: art, contests, car-shows, sports - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Frise-and-design-design-in-the-automotive-sector-tickets-1737148260209 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Liverpool - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Avenue HQ Mann Island - **lat**: 53.403679 - **long**: -2.9946034 - **full address**: Avenue HQ Mann Island, 17 Mann Island, Liverpool, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Design Network North (https://allevents.in/org/design-network-north/17610525) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/4208b7cd04630e7ca9f4aba40a5eca8bb96c07229ba06f7bc54da38ef9ab37b1-rimg-w1200-h600-dc161619-gmir.jpg?v=1763362300 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/fe226441efde2ff0218d6713e3286d33ea109044dd35ddfbeb65b4f907ec7abe-rimg-w400-h400-dc141418-gmir.jpg?v=1763362300 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Fri, 21 Nov, 2025 at 09:30 am - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Avenue HQ Mann Island, 17 Mann Island, Liverpool, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 GBP - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Design Network North - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** art, contests, car-shows, sports - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Rise and Design - Design in the Automotive Sector ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Rise and Design - Design in the Automotive Sector", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/4208b7cd04630e7ca9f4aba40a5eca8bb96c07229ba06f7bc54da38ef9ab37b1-rimg-w1200-h600-dc161619-gmir.jpg?v=1763362300", "startDate": "2025-11-21", "endDate": "2025-11-21", "url": "https://allevents.in/liverpool/rise-and-design-design-in-the-automotive-sector/100001737148260209", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Avenue HQ Mann Island", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "17 Mann Island", "postalCode": "L3 1BP", "addressLocality": "Liverpool", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "53.403679", "longitude": "-2.9946034" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "An insight into the design ethos and practices of some of the worlds greatest brands", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2025-11-21", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/liverpool/rise-and-design-design-in-the-automotive-sector/100001737148260209" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/SoldOut", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/liverpool/rise-and-design-design-in-the-automotive-sector/100001737148260209", "price": 0, "name": "In-Person Ticket" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/SoldOut", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/liverpool/rise-and-design-design-in-the-automotive-sector/100001737148260209", "price": 0, "name": "TWO MINUTE PITCH" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Design Network North", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/design-network-north/17610525", "description": "Design Network North supports innovative companies, helping them to utilise high quality design skills and processes.\r\nWe accomplish this by offering specialised product design, industrial design and new product development support.\r\nGood design is the key to future competitiveness.
