🎓 Higher Education, #STEAM & Public Outreach: Academic researchers, lecturers, and educational strategists connect digital spatial tools directly to curriculum development, research programs, and public-facing cultural communication.
🤓 Niche & Cross-Domain Applications: Members bring specialized approaches from adjacent fields, such as open-access community archives (e.g. #Wikimedia), cloud infrastructure, 3D medical imaging, accessible design for visitors with disabilities, and more!
Oof! Sketchfab passing hands twice in 5 years 😬
Even more uncertainty is never good for a community of creators so I hope Kitbash makes good on their promises to nurture and care for users and the their content.
We’re excited to share that KitBash, the company behind @KitBash3d and @GSG3D, is acquiring Sketchfab and @ArtStationHQ. Together, we’ll be working closely to continue supporting 3D artists across the creative process: from bringing ideas to life to sharing their work and building their careers.
There are no changes to how you access or use Sketchfab. Your models, embeds, and core workflows will continue to operate as they do now.
