Guided by its vision "Turning Energy Into Inspiration", the company's ambition is to help shape the future of mobility through cutting-edge, digital, and sustainable solutions. The Group expanded its brand portfolio by acquiring SBS Friction, J.Juan, and Öhlins, and presented SENSIFY, a state-of-the-art system integrating data management and AI to manufacture next-generation brake components. This positions Brembo as a technology-enhanced supplier riding secular trends in EV adoption and autonomous vehicle development.
Cyborg Score Rationale
By supplying multiple OEMs, Brembo can be less exposed to the booms and busts of any single automaker. However, the company is still tightly linked to the auto cycle, and any slowdown in new car sales or premium performance models can hit orders. Strong brand positioning and innovation efforts offset cyclical industry exposure.
Top Insights
In 2019, Brembo expanded its motorsport presence by becoming the exclusive supplier of brakes for Formula E, while also making its debut in the MotoE championship.
