Building for the User Who Doesn't Sign the Check: Digital Accessibility with Gilad Gimon (Evinced)

Description

Gilad Gimon, VP Product at Evinced, explains what a company that builds tools for developers does in order to produce genuinely accessible digital products — not a plugin that hides problems, but a solution from the 'ground up' (shifting left) across the entire Software Development Lifecycle. Around this unfolds his professional story — from product in 8200, through data analyst and EdTech, to leading product at Evinced — and the product's central tension: the buyer (the accessibility/compliance manager) is not the user (the developer), and you have to market and build for both at once. Gilad also touches on tightening regulation (the European Accessibility Act, ADA) and the idea that accessibility is a mindset that improves the product for everyone.
