- Debate & Discussion: Accessibility. Dan Middleton, Hyperledger Technical Steering Committee Chair recently brought up the topic of accessibility in our mailing list. This is an oft neglected topic and perspective and it'd be great to engage this group in a discussion around it. We've invited Laurie Henneborn, Managing Director in Research at Accenture to share with us her experience and perspective on diversity and inclusion, blockchain, and accessibility. Please take a look at her recent HBR article on disability inclusion. Below are a few other background articles on this topic in the blockchain sector as well:
