NEW VIDEO: The Business Behind Kurzgesagt
🕑 Added 2023-03-28 14:00:05 +0000 UTCIn 2023, Kurzgesagt has existed for 10 years (which is insanely long in internet years).
We are among the largest sciencey channels on Youtube and still a bit of a black box to people.
So let us talk about ourselves in three parts: Our backstory, how we finance our work, and the values of Kurzgesagt!

Happy anniversary!!! I'm proud of being Patron. My 17 years old son already finished reading 'Immune' by Philipp Dettmer. In my case, your mission is fulfilled!!! Thank you again, Edin

you ended the colab with funk, will the german market still be served? I work as teacher in germany and often use your stuff, it would be great to have translated posters and so on :)

Happy to support you guys. My son got me into your videos and I'm glad he did. You and NotJustBikes were the first two creators that I supported. I'm quite curious what this "long format" platform you guys are researching is. Could it be Nebula or Curiosity Stream? That would be cool since, thanks to NJB, I already am a subscriber. In any case, keep up the great work. I always look forward to your videos! :)

I am impressed at how many people (and how much money) it takes to create your videos. Thank you for putting in the effort. How is Philip doing? Fully in remission?

A project like this could only have been started by someone who did it out of love and passion with no regard for money. But still, I'm glad that y'all have gained a revenue stream, because it is well earned.

This video convinced me to support you directly. It's a pitty how much of the donation is VAT. What can we do about it? Perhaps direct account or Bitcoin?

Thanks for sharing! I continue to be surprised that you folks aren’t partnering with Displate. Having your posters printed on metal and be more durable seems like it could work.

Amazing, I was hoping you all would open up to bit more about this. Thanks for sharing!

When I first joined Patreon, my first two creators to support were Captain Disillusion and Kurzgesagt. Over the years my patronage has grown and shrunk according to my financial situation, but I have never dropped either of you, because I value your work too much. Looking forward to many more years of awesome, beautiful, accessible science.
