LWKS Software
EditShare sold Lightworks and QScan to LWKS Software. Employees who had worked on the products at EditShare also moved to the new company, with new versions of both applications expected in November 2020.
The sale allowed EditShare to concentrate more heavily on collaborative editing and cloud computing.
Outlook
Peter Lambert, CEO of LWKS Software, said the transfer was good news for users because it secured continued development of both products. Long-time Martin Scorsese editor Thelma Schoonmaker also welcomed the continuing support for Lightworks.
