Guidance on the development
of inclusive products
Are you looking for support in the development, testing or marketing inclusive products?
Products for people with disabilities must meet the specific requirements of the users. However, people without disabilities can rarely understand what really matters. That’s why we support you with our years of experience on the topic of inclusion and additionally offer focus group work with your target group tailored specifically to your products.
We support designers in the development of inclusive products as well as by taking over the entire product development up to production and the analysis of your sales opportunities.
