For this year's show, the micro:bit foundation wanted to have a pair of more visible micro:bits for their stand. Kitronik often works closely with the foundation, and so when we were asked if we could help with such a fun thing, of course, we said yes. The brief was to make a mega:bit, but even more MEGA sized.

Break free from the shackles of your workspace with our range of microbit Case & Accessories Options. If you need to cut the cord from your laptop and go mobile there are plenty of options currently available. This guide is to help you explore the possibilities and find a solution that is right for your project. 

On the 8 - 10th July 2019, NTU is running a 3 day designing with e-textiles course. The Tutor for the course will be Sarah Walker, a PhD researcher and university lecturer at Nottingham Trent University. Sarah is an expert in textile design, e-textile design, and innovation management and has also run many smart textile workshops.

BETT 2019 is almost here and we couldn't be more excited. Not only will we be there we also have a collection of great things to show you! We love to meet up with and chat with Educators, so if you are going, please stop by stand C423 and have a chat and see what we've been up to.

We would like to take some time out to wish all of our friends a Merry Christmas And Happy New Year. It's been a great year for us and all of our friends have been an integral part of making that happen. So, as well as wishing you all the best we would also like to say a big thank you!

We've got something super exciting to share with you this week, Fischertechnik STEM Packs are now available from Kitronik! At the time of writing, we have 9 new lines with more to follow.

The Kitronik crew, consisting of myself (Ben) and company director Geoff, were fortunate enough to be asked to join our distributors at Digi-Key at Maker Faire Rome 2018. Wanting to impress we put in a lot of work before hand on our set up, which can be seen in our blog post "All roads lead to Maker Faire Rome".

The Kitronik Press Release Archive lists our online press coverage by year. Read all about Kitronik products and milestones as reported online.

All Roads Lead To Rome Maker Faire 2018. We headed to Rome this weekend for the Rome Maker Fair 2018. But first, we need to build a new track. Check it out!

This weekend Kitronik attended their first All London Raspberry Pi Jam at the Flatiron School. Kitronik's Ben Gray, loaded down with a delicious selection of Kitronik goodies, headed south in pursuit of knowledge and great company.

After the summer slow down, nothing gives the new product introductions a kick start better than a new catalogue. We've come out the other side of that now and the new lines are still coming thick and fast. It must be the bigger warehouse we have now, gotta fill it all!

The new Design And Technology Catalogue 2018 to 2019 is now out and should be landing in your school in the very near future. We've also uploaded a digital version that you can access while you wait for your hard copy.

We've added some great new products to the range recently that we can't wait to tell you about! So many in fact that this is a selection rather than the full list, so we avoid a TL;DR situation.

In the spirit of the original mission statement, the microbit goes to rural India for a series of workshops. The workshops were run by Timeless Lifeskills and delivered to children who would not have got the opportunity otherwise.

It's been quite a while since we last shared any new product news via a blog post. We've been so busy of late that we haven't done much to bring new additions to our range to your attention. The lure of attending shows and events has been too great, we love getting out and about and meeting as many people as possible!
