Breaking Down Barriers: Digital Accessibility for All.
Jio Institute recently hosted a transformative session with Akashdeep Bansal, the visionary founder of SaralX. SaralX is a provider of comprehensive accessibility services aimed at creating inclusive digital experiences for people with disabilities.
Bansal's journey from an IIT-D PhD graduate to a pioneering figure in technology is nothing short of inspiring. His passion for creating a digital world accessible to all is evident in his work with SaralX. During the session, he delved deep into the significance of accessibility in technology, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities.
A highlight of the session was Bansal's emphasis on "accessibility thinking." He encouraged students to integrate this mindset into their work, urging them to design and develop products and services that cater to a diverse user base.
Bansal's talk served as a powerful reminder that technology should be a tool for empowerment, not exclusion. As the world becomes increasingly digital, it is imperative that we create a digital landscape where everyone feels included and valued.
Jio Institute is committed to fostering a culture of inclusivity and accessibility. By hosting thought leaders like Akashdeep Bansal, the institute aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to build a more accessible future.
