What does it actually look like when a tech community stops talking about inclusion and starts building it? 🤔
Four years ago at Scottish Summit 2022, we decided to find out. We didn't just want a diverse line-up, we wanted to push the boundaries of what a community tech event could be.
Looking back, that event set a new benchmark:
🛠️ We partnered with Microsoft (led at the time by Dona Sarkar) for a dedicated Accessibility Hackathon, building real-world solutions.
🤟 We witnessed history with a powerful keynote delivered entirely in sign language by the incredible @cmcginley. (Seriously, go watch it: youtube.com/watch?list=PLGVT…
📈 We embedded accessibility into the very fabric of the event. We didn't get everything perfect, but the lessons we learned were invaluable.
Which is why we are thrilled to say... Scottish Summit is back for 2026 in Edinburgh!
