Last year marked a decisive turning point for the AD Education Group, of which IAAD. is an integral part. With more than 42,000 students, 23 schools across 9 countries and an ever-expanding educational offer, our responsibility towards ecological transition, social justice and responsible governance has grown accordingly.
In a context shaped by climate emergency and profound social change, the role of education goes beyond professional preparation. It means educating individuals who are able to understand the present, transform it and actively contribute to a more sustainable future.
The ESG Report 2024–2025 tells this story through more than one hundred initiatives developed across the Group’s campuses and schools, thanks to the commitment of students, faculty and administrative teams, who have turned ESG values into concrete, creative actions deeply rooted in their local communities.
From more energy-efficient campuses to educational programmes integrating Corporate Social Responsibility topics, from strengthened inclusion policies to numerous local solidarity initiatives, the results are tangible. One figure in particular highlights this progress: between 2022 and 2024, the carbon footprint per student was reduced by 11%.
As IAAD., we proudly share the vision of a Group that demonstrates every day how academic excellence and collective responsibility can go hand in hand. A commitment that looks to the future, with the ambition of measuring success not only in terms of professional integration, but also through personal fulfillment and contribution to a fairer and more sustainable society.

A WORKSHOP TO IMAGINE AND DESIGN THE HYPERCAR OF THE FUTURE
Your dreams into action – the hypercar as a haute couture dress is an international workshop by the Transportation Design Department dedicated to exploring the concept of the hypercar as a synthesis of extreme performance, radical design, and a purist driving experience. An intensive program that invites students to return to the fundamentals of design, placing the driver, lightness, and advanced engineering at the center of the project.
The workshop approaches the hypercar as an essential, aerodynamically pure design object, inspired by open-wheel race cars and fighter jets. Through research and project development, students work on eliminating the superfluous, optimizing mass, and integrating aesthetics with performance, interpreting Italo Calvino’s “La leggerezza” within the context of contemporary transportation design.
The program unfolds over five days of activities, alternating phases of research, development, and project finalization. Visits to MAUTO – the National Automobile Museum – and to the Pista 500 enrich the experience, strengthening the connection with automotive culture and with the historical context in which the automobile was born.
Guided by Davide Tealdi, designer and lecturer with extensive experience in transportation design, students work in an international and collaborative environment, engaging in dialogue on method, vision, and design language. The workshop is conceived as an open space for experimentation, exchange, and project-based growth.
The workshop offers a reflection on the future of analog driving in an increasingly digital world, encouraging students to translate personal visions into coherent, radical, and poetic hypercar concepts. A design experience that brings together imagination, technique, and design culture.

IAAD. Event : 18th – 22th April
Bra-Very Bar, the third edition of the project at Fuorisalone 2024
IAAD. is proud to announce the launch of “Designer Needed”, the new communication campaign conceived and developed by a team of students who responded to and participated in an Open Call dedicated to this project.
For the first time, IAAD. has chosen to rely on its own community to tell its story, believing that no one is better suited than those who experience this reality daily to convey its vision and values.
Under the supervision of Aurelio Tortelli – Strategic Director of the Communication Design Department, and Marco Rainò Artistic Director of IAAD., along with faculty members Isabella Ferraris, Carlo Bordone, and Pamela Pelatelli, the students created a campaign that sparks reflection on the crucial role of designers in contemporary society. The goal is to address diverse needs through design processes that are simultaneously functional, poetic, and responsible.
The campaign’s claim, ” I Am A Designer “, not only strengthens IAAD.’s identity but also emphasizes that the designers the world needs are right here, trained within our school.
The winners behind the selected proposals are: Sofia Billò, Marta Lombardi, Emanuele Luzzi, Francesco Mellano, and Claudia Nobile for the campaign development; while the claim was created by Lorenzo Chiavazza, Claudio Ariel Dal Farra, Matteo Donini, and Samuele Filippelli.
