We kick off the year with a powerful and necessary conversation about accessibility and the future of inclusive design. In this episode, we dive into technical and strategic topics such as sonification, web standards, and how inclusive thinking is reshaping the way we design and build digital products.

Our guest is Léonie Watson, Director of TetraLogical, Chair of the W3C, and one of the most influential voices in global web accessibility. With decades of experience, Léonie has been pushing the boundaries of what is possible on the web through technologies like SVG, HTML, ARIA, JavaScript, AI, and WebVR. In addition to leading TetraLogical, Léonie is a co organizer of Inclusive Design 24, co author of the Inclusive Design Principles, and a Microsoft MVP. Her work bridges standards, professional practice, and advocacy, always grounded in the belief that accessibility is essential to building a better and more equitable web.

What we cover in this episode

• What sonification is and why it matters for richer accessible experiences• The real role of web standards in building inclusive products• Why inclusive design goes far beyond compliance
