May 16th marks the thirteenth anniversary of Global Accessibility Awareness Day, an initiative founded to promote digital access and inclusion for more than one billion people with disabilities worldwide. For many users, the digital landscape is filled with roadblocks. GAAD is a powerful reminder that our increasingly digital world must be accessible to all, regardless of abilities. However, despite significant strides, over 90% of homepages still present at least one accessibility failure. The GAAD (Global Accessibility Awareness Day) Foundation, launched in 2021, was founded by Jennison Asuncion and Joe Devon to “disrupt the culture of technology and digital product development to include accessibility as a core requirement.” Another point of interest for companies seeking to get involved is that digital accessibility and inclusive design introduce your products and services to a broader audience via a better user experience. Whether you’re a strategist, designer, developer, engineer, or business leader, you play a crucial role in shaping an inclusive digital future. Dedicating just one day to this cause can inspire year-round advocacy and action. #GAAD2024 #InclusiveDesign #Accessibility #GlobalAccessibilityAwarenessDay

Brad Melmon published two exceptional posts last week about master modeling and its essential role in communicating design intent.   Master models play an essential role in Fresh's end-to-end product development workflows.

This edition of our newsletter highlights Brad’s posts, provides links to the content, and includes additional commentary on this product development workflow’s value to our clients, partners, and collaborators. #MechanicalEngineering #IndustrialDesign #ProductDevelopment #MasterModels #MasterModeling
