The construction of the new Andretti Global headquarters in Fishers is slated to start this fall. Upon completion in 2025, the facility will manage Andretti’s global commercial operations. Currently, it is the team’s hub of operations for its current NTT INDYCAR SERIES, Indy Lights, and IMSA programs. Moreover, it will cater to additional upcoming racing projects.
The building will house sophisticated research and development activities for Andretti Technologies. In addition, it will host the day-to-day operations of the racing team. Its location “will give Andretti Global the opportunity to welcome community and race fans from around the world.”
This will reportedly be achieved through involvement with the Fishers Parks Nature First program. Additionally, the facility’s planned indoor amphitheater, museum, and innovation center will play a key role in this vision. The innovation center will preserve and showcase the Andretti legacy and inspire the future of motorsports.
