Include: AI and Accessibility

less than 1 minute read

We had our first event in IAccessible’s “Include” series in December at the beautiful Microsoft Reactor location. More than 70 accessibility enthusiasts came together for a great discussion on accessibility and AI.

While the discussions were great, the networking and the connections made were even better. Here is a video of the event for those who missed it.

We were honored to have:

  • Saqib Shaikh: A visionary at Microsoft, Saqib’s work, including Seeing AI, demonstrates AI’s power in creating inclusive technologies.
  • Rob Sinclair: Rob has been instrumental in embedding accessibility into Atlassian’s strategy, offering lessons on building inclusive digital environments.
  • Jennifer Smith: An expert in digital accessibility strategy, Jennifer is leading design accessibility at Visa, providing valuable insights at the intersection of accessibility design and AI.
