WORKSHOP
The easiest way to get started with Sigfox is to use a devkit and to practice!
To help you to do so, we provide guidance to drive courses and workshops, through best practices and contents. We also worked together with several board- and chip-makers in order to provide first-timers with accessible hardware.
Would you like to learn more about IoT opportunities and technical matters? Empower your local community with courses, workshops and events!
HARDWARE
We can provide developer kits and modules. Each devkit comes with a year of free Sigfox connectivity.
