Developing accessible technology for the workplace can influence the future. By providing the means for workers with different abilities to contribute fully and actively on the job, accessible technologies can improve business competitiveness, increase innovation, and change lives.
“Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future.” – Steve Jobs
“I don't have expectations that all of our approximately 30,000 developers will become experts on accessibility. Instead, I have a core set of experts who are there to train others and become a resource company-wide.”
– Peter Wallack
Senior Director, Accessibility Program Office, Oracle
