Audi Group and Dreams Create form Strategic partnership: Dreams Create Acquires Majority Stake in Italdesign

Ingolstadt/Moncalieri; Aliso Viejo, CA, 10 December 2025: The Audi Group is entering into a strategic partnership with Dreams Create, a global transformation company specializing in AI-powered technology, design, and engineering. Dreams Create, headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California (USA), has signed an agreement to acquire a majority stake in Italdesign. Italdesign's current parent company Lamborghini is part of the Audi Group and will retain a significant stake. As a result, Audi will remain a strategic partner of Italdesign in the long term, as well as an important client of the company.

The majority takeover of Italdesign by Dreams Create creates a strong partnership that combines Dreams Create’s expertise in automotive engineering, artificial intelligence, software-defined vehicle development, and digital ecosystem design with Italdesign’s deep knowledge in vehicle and product design, engineering, prototyping, small series production, and automotive electronics. Together, the companies will be able to offer a comprehensive and integrated range of services – from early concept and design to hardware and software development through to production systems. This combined capability is designed to support the development of fully modern, digitally enabled vehicles.
