ClassBento is an online marketplace based in Sydney, Australia, specialising in offering a wide array of creative workshops and classes.[1] The platform was co-founded by John Tabari and Iain Wang with the aim of making arts and crafts more accessible to the public and as a means to support local artisans and craft teachers.[2][3]

History

ClassBento was founded in Australia in 2016 by John Tabari and Iain Wang, who were colleagues at the online fashion retailer, THE ICONIC. The Sydney-based company aims to connect individuals seeking to learn creative hobbies with creators who offer workshops.[4] Following its success in Australia, ClassBento expanded its services to the UK on 27 November 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdowns.[5] In 2021, as COVID-19 restrictions began to ease globally, ClassBento launched in the US, offering both in-person and online workshops.[6] Later that year, in December 2021, ClassBento's UK branch received the Silver Positive Impact Award at the SME National Business Awards.[7]

Achievements and milestones

Throughout its operation, ClassBento has been acknowledged by several institutions and has received various accolades. The platform was honoured at the Sydney Young Entrepreneur Awards[8] and has been a recipient of the UK National Business Awards.[9] In addition, ClassBento has been featured in prominent publications, including Vogue Australia,[10] BuzzFeed,[11] and Time Out.[12]
