Tech For Disability

TLA Tech For Disability Inclusive Conversations - Various months on a Tuesday at 17:00 UK time

Tech London Advocates (TLA) Tech For Disability offers a series of regular Inclusive Conversations. As a group, we aim to connect the disabled and tech communities to facilitate the exchange and sharing of information to promote knowledge, awareness, and opportunities so technology can benefit everyone. For each conversation, a person is normally invited as a conversation starter to spark a discussion around a theme, topic, project or organisation and it is an opportunity to gather and share feedback, ideas and information exchange. Feel free to contact us if you would like to be a conversation starter at a future session.Our sessions normally take place on a Tuesday on various months at 17:00-18:00 UK time.

N﻿OTE: Our next scheduled Inclusive Conversation for 1st November will be postponed but we will publish the updated date and agenda once we are able. You may continue to book the current next slot, but please be aware of the change and you will be notified.Our Zoom link will enable real-time captions and live transcription both for accessibility and to help in capturing the information but we are happy to keep any attributions anonymous for privacy. Do email us for any other accessibility requirements before the event to info@techfordisability.org.uk. See you there!

About Tech For DisabilityIn previous sessions, we’ve seen early demos of VR worlds and banking management for vulnerable people. We hosted a panel discussion on tech for neurodiversity at London Tech Week that expanded our global audience. There were spontaneous discussions of how retail could understand more of deaf needs, repurposing disabled schemes from one industry to the tech industry, and how public APIs could recognise a schema of accessibility needs shared as an individual profile.We want to be at the hub of content flowing through this network. One way to do so is through our meetings, so please attend to add to the conversation and ideas. Another way is to contribute relevant news and information to us so we can distribute it through our platform.We’ll plan to have at least one person as a conversation starter. They might be disability consultants, advocates, researchers, startup entrepreneur or tech business employee.Please note that this group is backed by Tech London Advocates, a network to promote London as a global capital of technology. TLA is part of Global Tech Advocates, so all are welcome. If you aren’t already a member of Tech London Advocates, you can join by booking attendance, and TLA will follow up to welcome you should you agree.ContactsSign up to our mailing list, Twitter feed or LinkedIn page to stay tuned and connect into the flows.<a href="https://techfordisability.org.uk/join-us/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://techfordisability.org.uk/join-us/</a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/tla-tech-for-disability" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.linkedin.com/company/tla-tech-for-disability</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Tech4disAbility" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://twitter.com/Tech4Disability</a>
