Vantage, the international multi-asset broker, together with McLaren MX Extreme 
E Team, has unveiled its latest Mother's Day video campaign celebrating the 
supportive female role models who helped to shape McLaren's first female 
driver, Emma Gilmour. 

The video features New Zealand-born Gilmour, and pays tribute to her mother who 
made her journey easier. 

From being the first and only woman to date to win a Rally World Championship 
event in 2016, to becoming McLaren Racing's first female driver competing in 
the Extreme E championship series, Gilmour is fully cognisant of her position 
as a female role model in a male-dominated world, and credits her mother's 
unwavering support for her success.

"My mother has been one of my biggest supporters," says Gilmour. "She was there 
for all of my accomplishments, and my disappointments. She encouraged me to 
pursue my dreams and helped me to achieve them in every way she could. On this 
day and every day, I thank her for all her unlimited love and support."

"In our pursuit for an ideal future, women have always been the most crucial 
piece of the puzzle. This is our small way of showing our appreciation for the 
most important women in our lives - our mothers," says Marc Despallieres, Chief 
Strategy and Trading Officer, Vantage.

Despallieres explains that the multi-year partnership between Vantage and 
McLaren MX Extreme E Team was cemented on the shared values of sustainability 
and diversity, as well as gender equality, inclusion and representation, all 
while championing for and advocating climate change awareness. 

"At Vantage, we have remained steadfast in our commitment to supporting, 
educating, and empowering the women among us, and we desire to continue to do 
so for the long term."
