Who is this guy with
the Dutch accent?

•Peter Minuit of the Dutch
West India Company, in
1626, decided to buy
Manhattan Island for goods
worth 60 Dutch guilders,
which later legend valued at
US$24. It has been rated
the best real estate deal in
history.
•On Sept 8, 1664 New
Amsterdam becomes New
York

and radio frequency (RF) components. Leveraging

Why do we like makers and start ups so much?
We like to enable unlimited possibilities and grow together

Let’s pause for a little and read this….
“By 2018, 50% of the internet of things
solutions will be provided by startups
which are less than 3 years old. We can
estimate what the internet of things will
be like now, but we know that most of the
things that will exist in 2018 we can’t
even conceive of because they haven’t
been invented yet.” Source: Gartner

more examples of projects
and companies powered by
Atmel

What do these companies have in common?
Powered by Atmel, and leveraged the community

Here is a Recent Kickstarter Campaign Atmel
helped boost
“Aside from just the development hurdles we were faced with,
Atmel also helped us promote UnaliWear which helped us achieve
our vital milestone on Kickstarter. This also provided market
validation and consumer acceptance to our product.”
