Ableism is deeply embedded in the tech industry—but it doesn’t have to be.
In this episode of Disability@Work, Ashley Sims is joined by Jacqueline and Alexa Child, sisters and co-founders of Dateability, the first dating app built specifically for people with disabilities. Together, they unpack ableism in tech, why accessibility is still treated as an afterthought, and how inclusive design benefits everyone. The conversation also explores disability representation in startups, barriers to VC funding for disabled founders, and what it takes to build accessible technology from the ground up.
This episode is a must-listen for tech leaders, designers, founders, and anyone committed to disability inclusion, accessible design, and equitable innovation.
