2012 SEEDKIT LAUNCH For the last few years we've been offering students and institutions an opportunity to experiment and play with ThingM products through our Seedkit program. This year we've changed it up a bit, in exchange for a greatly reduced price, all we ask is participants commit to documenting and sharing their process with us. We'll hopefully inspire our ThingM community by sharing the best ideas on our blog and in our newsletters. This year we have two options, a whole schmogasborg of ThingM goodies called the Grab Bag, as well as a Wearables Kit specifically geared for soft goods.

All Seedkits are intended for educational, non-commercial purposes, you must have a .edu email address to request a Seedkit.
