Tech Fest Summit is the cornerstone of “DDS Tech First Initiative”: “Tech First" refers to an initiative that prioritizes the use of technology to promote independence, inclusion, and improved quality of life for individuals with disabilities within all the Life Domains. This approach leverages the power of technology, including the implementation of assistive technologies, universally designed technology, remote support technologies, and digital solutions to maximize opportunities and service delivery for individuals with disabilities to lead self-directed lives in their communities.

The “Tech Fest Summit” is a cornerstone of this initiative, serving as a pivotal platform to advance its goals. The summit aims to bring together a diverse audience including individuals with disabilities, their families, technology companies, service providers, and government agencies. It showcases the latest technological innovations and emphasizes their potential in empowering people with disabilities. By fostering dialogue, promoting inclusivity, and providing a space for hands-on exploration of these technologies, the summit plays a critical role in transforming lives and making the goals of the Tech First Initiative a reality.
