We opened LinkMeToo: the first LinkedIn for disabled people. The platform connects disabled people to the world of work, hosting interviews and speeches by professionals with disabilities. Then we brought disabled people with a job aspiration together with disabled professionals who achieved that aspiration. Through the LinkMeToo page also companies have been invited to act, participating to a special event about job and disability: the Diversity Day.
