Sport for Business in Conversation with Colin Westcott-Pitt of Glanbia Performance Nutrition

In today's 82nd episode of the show, back after a short Olympic fuelled summer break, we are diving into the world of Formula One, and the position of an Irish company at its very highest level.

Colin Westcott-Pitt is the Global Chief Brand Officer at Glanbia Performance Nutrition, and his signature is only just dry on a deal with the McLaren F1 team.

Glanbia is now fuelling the drivers who are flying around the tracks, making life-and-death decisions in microseconds, and very much needing to be at the top of their game.

We chat about the role of nutrition in that high-octane environment, about the business, but also about the old days of James Hunt, when the driver was perhaps more about the high life than the details of high-performance prep, and, of course, about what Zac Brown is like to work with…

Our Leadership Series Coverage is in partnership with PwC, and we have a great line-up of interviews coming down the track over the coming weeks.
