Dreame is shutting down its ambitious automotive division, Project Starry Sky, after government funding dried up. The project once employed over 1,000 people but has been reduced to a skeleton crew handling the winding-down process. The company says it will refocus on smart home, outdoor/garden, smart mobility, and embodied AI.
Background
Dreame Technology is a Chinese consumer electronics company best known for its robot vacuums and home cleaning products, but has been expanding into adjacent tech categories under CEO Wu Hongbo's vision of becoming a global technology giant.
