“One thing that we found is that if you're building for accessibility, you're really focusing on building for usability for everybody. Down the road, it impacts and helps everyone. That's the whole mission.” Patrick Guiney-Fox, Co-Founder and COO of DevA11y https://lnkd.in/e9hwhX9Y

Had a great chat with Cormac and Patrick from DevA11y a couple of weeks ago, all about how they're helping to open up the internet for people living with disabilities. A couple of takeaways: - 94% of EU websites currently do not comply with mandatory accessibility regulations 🇪🇺 - 1/6 people globally experience a significant disability 🌎 - A ton of things we all use today (subtitles on TV, light/dark mode on your phone, adjustable text size) were originally designed as accessibility features ⚙️ NDRC | Dogpatch Labs | DevA11y Check it out here! https://lnkd.in/ewv_uhuX

Heard about the incoming European Accessibility Act? The countdown is on for the ‘GDPR of digital accessibility’ and our #Accelerator cohort startup DevA11y is ahead of the curve with its AI-powered platform, and is here to tell you why you should care, and how it can help you build accessible apps and websites. We sit down with the founders Cormac Chisholm and Patrick Guiney-Fox to hear more about how they’re expanding the interest for the people it’s left behind with DevA11y.
