We were thrilled to reconnect with some of the incredible ventures that emerged from the Innovate Now Official by Assistive Technologies for Disability Trust, a Kenyan based #AT accelerator led by #GDIHub & Kilimanjaro Blind Trust Africa & funded by NORAD. The accelerator is delivered by @AT4DTrust which spun out from our UK aid #AT2030Programme.
