What an incredible journey! 🚀 I'm still buzzing from Sight Tech Global 2024, and I have to take a moment to share something personal. As part of the team behind this global conference, I can honestly say I've never poured more heart, energy, and dedication into a project - and the results were beyond what we imagined. Over two incredible days, we brought together 60+ brilliant speakers across 22 sessions, reaching attendees from more than 70 countries. Each conversation, from AI innovations to mobility solutions, reinforced why we do this work: to push the boundaries of what's possible in accessibility. I'm deeply proud of what our team accomplished, but more than that, I'm inspired by the incredible community that came together to explore how technology can create a more inclusive world. Missed the conference? All sessions are now available on our YouTube channel! https://lnkd.in/gYZjkKxr A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible - speakers, attendees, and especially my amazing colleagues at Vista Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired #TechForGood #Accessibility #Innovation #InclusiveTech
