INDIE dot VC (indie.vc) #makerbusiness Funding for 8 companies
INDIE dot VC. Adafruit has not taken any loans or funding, but if we did or if we do – we’ve always admired OATV and we would talk to them first – they invested in Chumby, Instructables, 3D robotics, spark.io, Misfit wearables, Maker Media and more. They have a new experiment called “indie.vc” – check it out, it might be a match.
WHO: Bootstrappers with ambitions that exceed their cash flow. Creatives with side projects they’re funding through client work. Founders that don’t want to sell out their users to attract investors or advertisers.
Adafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world. Our standards page is intended as a guide to best practices that Adafruit uses, as well as an outline of the ethical standards Adafruit aspires to. While Adafruit is not an independent journalistic institution, Adafruit strives to be a fair, informative, and positive voice within the community – check it out here: adafruit.com/editorialstandards
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.

Best of luck to all of you at Adafruit in for 2015.
