Our veteran team has over 20 years of CAD development experience, and our history started initially in the 90`s with a great product called UniCAD. We have been building SolidFace, our 3D collaborative design software for more than five years. Continually innovating and pushing out upgrades to our software - much to user’s and companies’ delight. Our team managed to win customers and maintain a technology advantage over larger and established players in the field like Autodesk, 3D Systems, Stratasys, etc SolidFace is entirely bootstrapped, building and maintaining this company has always been a challenge. However, we love being entrepreneurs! Scientists pursue knowledge, mathematicians prove theorems, engineers build things. We create software that helps people build dreams. We think the 3D technology itself is really cool. The idea of modeling something in 3D on your computer, it is fantastic for us, especially when you model things in the full fidelity and detail that we do in 3D CAD. But we’re not in the business of creating software for its own sake; we’re in the business of helping users build exceptional products. Solidface is a sum of Parasolid ® Siemens 3D modeler core and 15 years of UniCAD 2D/3D development resulting in a product with powerful capabilities of detailing, solid modeling, assembly, parameterization and cloud collaboration.

Seedlings Mission is to mitigate the impact of parental incarceration on children in Central Texas through school-based mentoring. Across Central Texas, children with parents in the Texas prison system go to school and live with pain and stigma. When a child loses a parent to incarceration, they lose one of the most significant people in their life. As a result, they face significant risk factors that can make it difficult to succeed in school. Our Vision All children in Central Texas who have an incarcerated parent have the opportunity to thrive. Seedling believes in the promise of every child: the promise of an education, the promise of a future, and the promise of all they can contribute to society. Our Work: The Seedling Mentor Program has served more than 3,000 students on 150+ campuses in 11 districts and 16 public and charter schools in Austin and Central Texas. Seedling initially began in 1997, founded by John Blazier, as a campus beautification program. The mentoring program began in October 2005 at the request of a group of school principals who were concerned about the growing numbers of children affected by the incarceration of one or both of their parents. Seedling recruits volunteers from the community, matches them with eligible children, and offers ongoing support to both children and mentors. Our mentors provide stable, long-term relationships for the students and help them develop and maintain positive attitudes towards school. Supported, nurtured, and encouraged, the children of the Seedling Mentor Program build the resilience necessary to overcome their circumstances and fulfill the promise of their young lives. www.seedlingmentors.org
