a3: Ability - Adaptability - Accessibility

A Place Where accessibility begins...

Front Cover of August 2008 Edition

By Shilpi Kapoor

At BarrierBreak Technologies, we have wanted to focus on the ability of the people and how society and technology can help them overcome their limitations. I think each of us has limitations, some more than the other.

We have started a new idea to spread awareness about accessibility.

Our biggest challenge has been finding a name for the idea. So we decided to call the magazine a3.

Our focus at a3 will be ability, adaptability and accessibility.

a3 is such an endeavor to provide information, tips, news on things that matter to us all! Initially, we will be releasing a3 every quarterly.

We look for your support and feedback! You can write to me at editora3@barrierbreak.com.
