The Audi Design Foundation, which has donated more than £1million to innovative design projects since its inception in 1997, will complete its final major initiative early next year and conclude its work as an independent charitable trust.

Sustain our Nation, which charges university students with the task of designing local community enterprises, will be completed at the end of March 2010, bringing to a close Audi's 12-year patronage of the Foundation.

The Audi Design Foundation has encouraged and empowered designers to come up with design ideas and solutions that create a positive change in people's lives. We sincerely hope that the excellent work of the Foundation has created a lasting legacy for the UK's design movement.

PLEASE NOTE: The Audi Design Foundation is not involved in car design and we are unable to give advice on a career with Audi. For more information on opportunities with Audi worldwide, please go to www.audi.com
