THE VALUES ROOM with Ana Sasmiresan

Disability Accessibility with Michael Vermeersch

Ana Sasmiresan Episode 23

Welcome to THE VALUES ROOM with Ana Sasmiresan!

In this episode, I am interviewing Michael Vermeersch, Accessibility Go to Market Manager with Microsoft, disability influencer and thought leader. Michael’s mission is to increase societal inclusion for people with disabilities. His personal proudest achievement is having brought Microsoft UK to Disability Confident Leadership status. Michael received Microsoft’s highest Platinum Club award for his work in disability inclusion and was listed as one of "125 People to Follow" on LinkedIn about Diversity and Inclusion. He also featured in the Disability Power 100 List. 

What to look forward to from this episode?

Michael shared stories, transformative ideas and data that the society at large should become intimately aware of. One billion people have a disability globally, and by age 46 (on average) adults start gaining their first disability. Disability is part of the human experience, and creating accessibility is a responsibility and a grand opportunity.
