Internet Icons: Eben Upton, Raspberry Pi

How do you turn a tiny computer into a global phenomenon? Join us at Granola for a conversation with Eben Upton, co-founder and CEO of Raspberry Pi!

Eben’s story with Raspberry Pi began at the University of Cambridge, where he became interested in finding a way to get more young people excited about computing. Having studied and taught Computer Science at Cambridge and worked as an engineer at Broadcom, he went on to help create Raspberry Pi - an affordable, programmable computer designed to make computing more accessible. What started as an educational idea has since grown into a global technology company and changed how millions of people learn, experiment and build with technology. We’ll talk about the story behind Raspberry Pi, the early ideas that shaped it, and what Eben has learned from creating a piece of technology that has influenced a generation of builders. Doors open at 5.30pm. Please arrive by 6pm. The talk kicks off at 6pm and the doors will be shut after this. Drinks…
