VISTA Center’s Ignite Accessibility Entrepreneur Pitch Competition
About this episode
Today on the show Steven and Shaun find out about some of the latest innovations on show at the VISTA Center Ignite Accessibility Entrepreneur Pitch Competition, and we hear more of your emails and voicemails on a wide range of topics from keyboard monogamy to dancing plants.
The main conversation today focuses on the experiences of listener Kevin Chao who attended the VISTA Center Ignite Accessibility Entrepreneur Pitch Competition recently in San Diego, which gave him to the chance to discover a range of products, including wearable glasses, digital accessibility tools, and smart home devices. There was even a new magsafe-based braille device on show too called the Pocket Dot.
