What Active3D does

Active3D is a privately held interactive exhibit and experience design studio headquartered in Lee's Summit, Missouri. The company operates as a multidisciplinary team of interactive developers, digital artists, experience designers, and activation experts that designs and delivers custom brand experiences across digital, virtual, hybrid, and physical platforms for enterprise brands and marketing agencies. Its portfolio spans interactive touchscreen systems and product configurators, VR/AR/XR experiences including 360 tours and virtual spokespeople, projection mapping and hologram displays, photo activation platforms with social sharing, branded games and gamification, interactive scale models and dioramas, data capture and lead-tracking systems, and a full visual effects and animation studio covering 3D/2D animation, virtual sets, green screen compositing, and stylized stop motion production.

The studio builds projects using a combination of proprietary technology platforms (for photo activation, gesture-controlled interactives, and data capture dashboards) and industry-standard interactive development tools, with reusable experiential game templates and interactive components that can be customized per client. Active3D delivers projects 'rock-solid, worldwide' from its Kansas City headquarters, executing trade show exhibits, product launches, brand activations, fan fests, retail pop-ups, VIP events, museum and education installations, and mobile activation trailers for an enterprise client base spanning healthcare, sports and entertainment, industrial/manufacturing, retail/consumer, telecommunications, energy, and airlines.

Revenue is generated through custom project-based engagements under a B2B professional services model: each project is scoped, quoted, and delivered against defined requirements with no publicly disclosed rate cards or recurring pricing tiers. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, reaching enterprise clients through industry events, trade shows, portfolio demonstrations, the website contact form, and a dedicated sales email ([email protected]), with marketing amplification across LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, a portfolio 'Works' section, and an email newsletter. The company is privately held, with no disclosed investors, funding rounds, subsidiaries, parent entity, or executive team details available.

Broad incumbents

• MKG: Experiential marketing agency producing live brand experiences, immersive events, and activations for enterprise clients. Comparable in core service mix but operates at meaningfully larger scale than Active3D.
• Sparks: Global experiential marketing agency focused on trade shows, brand experiences, and live events. Directly comparable service offering to Active3D's trade show and activation work, with significantly larger delivery capacity.
• George P. Johnson Experience Marketing: Large global experiential marketing agency delivering trade show exhibits, brand activations, and event experiences for enterprise clients. Directly comparable in offering but operates at vastly greater scale than Active3D, making it both a competitor and a ceiling on the kind of RFPs Active3D can win.
• Jack Morton Worldwide: Global brand experience agency producing brand activations, experiential campaigns, and events for major enterprise brands. Comparable in targeting the same Fortune-500 CMO buyer with experiential briefs; differentiates as a much larger incumbent with global offices.
• AREA 23 (an IPG Health Company) / Havas Events: Large holding-company-owned experiential and event marketing agencies serving enterprise healthcare, consumer, and B2B brands. Comparable buyer overlap with Active3D's healthcare/pharma and trade show work, but at much greater scale and with global delivery infrastructure.
