Ho ricevuto una mail, immagino in quanto sono stato cliente di Shapeways, nella quale si tratteggia il tentativo di ricostruzione della Società, da parte di un nuovo staff... questa è la mail:
"Shapeways is Coming Home
Dear Giacomo,
I am delighted to announce that Shapeways is coming home.
Two original co-founders along with the highly-skilled leadership team from our Eindhoven factory have stepped in to steward the company into its next chapter. After Shapeways Inc. filed for bankruptcy in July, we knew we had to resurrect the company and preserve the digital manufacturing engine we all helped to build - a combination of dedicated, skilled people, cutting-edge machinery and sophisticated software. Moving forward, our focus is on rebuilding Shapeways and leveraging our digital manufacturing engine for our customers’ success.
We regret to inform you that our marketplace cannot be revived as it previously existed, as all marketplace accounts and accompanying data were deleted in the bankruptcy. We still believe in the Shapeways Shops concept and are actively pursuing new ways to replace this service for the Shapeways community. This exploration will take time and we ask for your patience on this journey. We hope to find a solution that allows you to access a similarly eclectic array of unique objects as you came to expect from the Shapeways marketplace. Stay tuned for details.
If you are a creator yourself you can upload and order your models here - we’d love to have you back.
In the meantime, you can learn more about the new Shapeways in our press release, here. We have compiled a FAQ around the bankruptcy and loss of the marketplace here. And you can learn a bit more about me, the new leadership team, and our vision for Shapeways here.
Warmly,
Marleen Vogelaar, CEO"
Ognuno ne tratta le conclusioni che vuole... certo se andrà in porto, e se funzionerà un po' meglio, potrebbe essere ancora una risorsa per chi, come me, non ha accesso a sistemi di stampa 3D nei dintorni di casa sua... staremo a vedere...
