Qualcomm buys @arduino
Congrats to the team and @mbanzi! While this might shake makers, I'm excited to see what Arduino's founders will do next, and for Arduino to have a major company's support to stay competitive in a ever concentrated tech space and create a new category for makers - with never seen capabilities on the edge. Best wishes for Arduino to stay competitive and relevant! #Arduino #Qualcomm
