A recent article written by one of our attendees at Remarkable Cohort #3 Demo Day - thanks Wendy Fergie on showcasing our startups! https://www.acsa.asn.au/…/Showcasing-ag ed-care-and-disabili… #beRemarkable #austartups
Microsoft recently announced a global push for the use of technology for good - $25M committed to AI for Accessibility. We are seeing a conscious decision from large companies that their products are inclusive. Hear from Microsoft as they talk about the importance of accessible tech.
This event forms part of our monthly Remarkable Inclusive Tech Meetup Series - supporting the growth of the Disability Tech / Inclusive Tech ecosystem - this meetup is a gathering of Remarkable Alumni, mentors, people with disability and others interested in the growth of technology being used for good in disability inclusion.

Tweet from Dylan Alcott about Channel 10 pilot show called Taboo - "One of the best way to change perceptions about something is through emotional and humerous stories. #TabooAU doing a kickarse job at both. @harleybreen killing it. Big congrats to the team!"
Did you watch it? And what did you think?

Timing is critical in the adoption of new ideas. They can make a new idea live or die. First time around Google Glass had negative press about how creepy it was, but could this use case be one that helps the re-birth of Google Glass? http://med.stanford.edu/…/google-glass- helps-kids-with-auti…

Want to know what it's like being part of the Remarkable Accelerator Program? We asked cohort 3 to tell us their highlights and thoughts. Enjoy and tell us what you think about this talented bunch of founders!! #beRemarkable
Check out Lusio Rehab’s new video. It beautifully illustrates the fantastic work they are doing. We’re proud to see how far they’ve come since being part of the 2017 Remarkable Accelerator Program. Keep up the great work!! #beRemarkable #remarkablealumni
Home Care Heroes stages a #NotAlone Flash Mob this week at Martin Place to help raise awareness on the isolation problem we have.
Remarkable believes in harnessing technology to make the lives of people with disability more inclusive. We have enough people in the world and the technology to make sure no one is alone.
We’re proud to see Home Care Heroes making this impact on the community.
