This badge was issued in 1995 as part of a general marketing and promotional campaign to celebrate the launch of Acorn RISC Technologies (ART). The company was later renamed Applied RISC Technologies who reissued the same design of badge but instead having the name "Applied RISC Technologies".

RiscPC and RiscOS (operating system) were commonly used throughout schools during the 1990’s.
