Accessibility – a game changer: Presented at IBM

Recently I got an opportunity to present as part of Design Thinking series at IBM. Thanks to my good friend Suresh and his colleague Ajay for having invited me. Below is the deck that was presented.

Participants were pretty enthusiastic and shown a keen interest to start their journey into accessibility. We have discussed importance of accessibility, business case and a few things to care about accessibility. We have also made a few hands-on exercises such as browsing a few websites using keyboard alone, with screen reader and using assistive technologies on mobile devices.

Thanks again IBM team for having me. Good luck to your accessibility journey. Of course, for IBM this is not a beginning. they have been doing a fantastic work for many years.
