Yesterday I visited the Festiwal Dostępności by kinaole with Kama Wodyńska... and it was absolutely fantastic! I'm really impressed by how much knowledge was shared in such a short time, and what's more, it was incredibly practical. So, a big shoutout to all the speakers: Marcin Krzanicki – Your talk really opened my eyes! If we don't think about the potential challenges our users might face, how can we help them? Agnieszka Książek, Piotr Ćwierz – It was truly insightful to see how assistive technologies in action and to understand their functionalities! Piotr Zrolka, CPACC – Talking about accessibility requires us to address the question "Why does it matter?". You provided us with data and ideas that make that conversation easier. Barbara Filipowska, Agata Tumidajewicz – I must confess, research involving individuals with disabilities remains uncharted territory for me. I believe I'm now better prepared to take those initial steps into this field! Once again big thanks to kinaole for putting it all together, and to Zendesk for the awesome venue! Can't wait for the next one! #accessibility #inclusion 

In our digital age, accessibility technology is crucial for advancing inclusivity. But why are text-to-speech and screen readers necessary? These essential tools empower persons with disabilities by providing auditory access to digital content, making information more accessible, and enabling independent navigation of the digital realm. What are your thoughts on this innovation? Share your insights! 🤝 #AccessibilityInnovation #SmartAssistiveTech

Only about 3% of the internet is accessible to people with disabilities today. 🌐 At Kloosive, we're on a mission to increase that number and make the digital world inclusive for all by adopting a technology-first approach. The traditional method of consultants recommending developers to manually address accessibility problems at the origin is costly and not suitable for the problem's magnitude. The solution to assisting businesses in resolving digital accessibility on a large scale involves a technology-focused strategy that blends technology's strengths with human expertise. With technology as our ally, we're making strides towards a more inclusive digital world. 💻✨ #Kloosive #AccessibilityMatters #InclusiveInternet #TechForGood
