A couple of months ago, the Raspberry Pi Foundation were advertising for a new CEO to replace Lance Howarth. Well, they have now found him in the shape of Philip Colligan. Philip, who comes from Nesta will start in July and oversee all the Foundation’s charitable activities, which includes outreach, education and that sort of thing. Nesta is all about encouraging young people to become makers, so Philip is well-suited to the role. I really hope he’s able to hit the ground running and take the Foundation’s activities to the next level.
Welcome Philip!
