Fraunhofer expertise and entrepreneurial spirit
The Fraunhofer spin-off’s business success and impressive growth are based in part on an impressive origin story: Many of the scientists involved already worked with a heavy focus on transfer and on their particular market during their time at their original institute, IGD, in Darmstadt. The institute is viewed as a pioneer in digital visualization platforms and sophisticated streaming solutions. The Threedy solution combines these two technologies to create a standardized, flexible technology in response to the many companies that had approached the institute with this specific challenge.
The four-person team made up of Christian Stein, Dr. Johannes Behr, Maik Thöner, and Sascha Räsch joined up with about 15 visual computing experts to establish Threedy GmbH in September 2020.
