Salesforce Signs On as Founding Partner of InclusionHub, a Comprehensive Digital Accessibility Resource & Database

InclusionHub

Salesforce has joined InclusionHub as a founding partner, underlining the increasingly important role the digital accessibility resource and database plays as a tool for educating and informing those who work to improve digital experiences. With more than 150,000 customers—including more than 80% of its fellow Fortune 500 members—and 36,000 employees, Salesforce is in a unique position to impact digital accessibility. As noted in the company’s 2021 Stakeholder Impact report, “Disability inclusion and accessibility are fundamental to our belief that businesses can be powerful platforms for social change and that our higher purpose is working toward Equality for All.” In joining InclusionHub as a founding partner, Salesforce is supporting a first-of-its-kind digital accessibility resource and database designed to help businesses, organizations and institutions with a digital presence learn more about digital inclusion solutions. Launched in December 2020, InclusionHub is built on crowd-sourced ratings and reviews from a global audience of digital accessibility experts and practitioners, and provides an unbiased, transparent and searchable database of companies that specialize in all aspects of digital inclusion. “We are privileged to be in a position where we can help create something with and for the community,” said Tom Frantz, Senior Manager of Accessibility Partnerships and Public Relations at Salesforce. “The role that InclusionHub plays as both a centralized resource, dedicated to the people who do this critical work, and a transparent platform to share truths is paramount. We’re excited to have the opportunity to ditch the corporate-heavy messaging and uphold the integrity of our community’s stories. We'll aim to help keep InclusionHub relevant by regarding it as a work-in-progress in collaboration with the community's evolving insight, feedback and needs. I truly believe in this initiative because the people behind InclusionHub are dedicated to the mission.” As a founding partner, Salesforce will work closely with the InclusionHub team to provide content and expert insight for the InclusionHub audience, and provide strategic advice on the continued expansion of the initiative, alongside existing founding partners Be My Eyes, an accessibility app for the blind and low-vision community, and Morey Creative Studios, a New York-based digital marketing agency with a strong focus on digital accessibility. “I'm delighted that Salesforce is joining us in supporting the critical work of improving the digital experience of millions of people through InclusionHub” said Will Butler, VP of Community at Be My Eyes. “With their support and collaboration, we are going to have a bigger impact than any one of us could have alone!” “I cannot imagine a more perfect partner for InclusionHub,” said Jon Sasala, President of Morey Creative Studios. “The platform has been incredibly well received since launch, and is starting to deliver on its mission of helping accessibility practitioners to learn about the variety of solutions available to them. But everyone involved is also conscious of the fact that, while we’re focused on doing things the right way for the communities that InclusionHub serves, we’re not perfect and that we might make some mistakes along the way. In addition to their expertise and support, the team at Salesforce have already contributed to that sense of openness and authenticity on this project, and I am confident they will help to accelerate InclusionHub’s growth, which in turn will help us all to create a better, more inclusive web for everyone.” To learn more about InclusionHub, including the upcoming “Certified Inclusive” initiative, visit inclusionhub.com.

AT LAST! MEOW WOLF DROPS NAME, THEME AND OPENING DATE FOR HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED THIRD EXHIBITION

Meow Wolf

Meow Wolf, an immersive arts and entertainment company, announced today the highly-anticipated theme and opening date for its third permanent installation: Convergence Station will be coming to Denver September 17, with tickets on sale today at meow.wf/denver-tix. Convergence Station is the first stop on a quantum journey of exploration and discovery as passengers traverse new worlds, and like all Meow Wolf locations, labyrinthine mysteries beckon from its vibrant walls, portals, and wormholes. Twenty-five years ago, a freak cosmic event merged four worlds from different universes, erasing the memories of all residents and spawning the mystifying disappearances of four women. The Quantum Department of Transportation serves as the gateway to these diverse worlds: kaleidoscopic cathedrals, Corinthian catacombs, lush alien habitats, and dazzling and gritty cityscapes. In this hotbed of interplanetary cohabitation, memories serve as both currency and the key to unlocking the story behind the women's disappearances and cause of the convergence--as do multimedia clues that reveal themselves to all of the senses. “Denver’s art scene is active and vibrant, making it the perfect place for our next exhibition,” said Chadney Everett, Executive Creative Director of Meow Wolf Denver. “ Convergence Station is Meow Wolf’s third permanent immersive experience, and it will truly change the way you look at art. This exhibition is unlike anything you’ve ever seen…from The Swamp to The Cathedral - there’s a strong narrative to be uncovered should you choose, alongside truly mind-bending art from the many talented creatives that have worked so hard to bring the vision to life. We can’t wait for everyone to explore.” Meow Wolf has worked with 110+ Colorado-based collaborating artists and more than 200 internal artists for over three years to bring the 79 unique projects within Convergence Station to life. These muralists, sculptors, fiber artists, and technologists to name a few have come together to create a one-of-a-kind installation that will leave visitors appreciating what it really means to be immersed in a narrative. Notable collaborating artists working on this project include Kalyn Heffernan, Christopher Nelson, Everything is Terrible!, Molina Speaks, Sofie Birkin, along with Moment Factory and many others. An evolving hive of creativity, Meow Wolf has been creating experiences that challenge the perception of reality, with three locations to explore in Santa Fe, Las Vegas, and soon Denver. Backed by top creators like Games of Thrones ’ George R.R. Martin, Meow Wolf is recognized globally as a leader in the immersive space and was ranked on Fast Company 's 2020 list of the ‘World’s Most Innovative Companies’, and awarded the #1 spot for Live Events. Following the success of their flagship location in Santa Fe, the arts and entertainment company launched their second permanent exhibition in Las Vegas in February this year which was an instant success, selling 516,899 tickets to date. Opening on September 17th, Convergence Station will be open from 10:00 am until 10:00 pm Sunday through Thursday and from 10:00 am until 12:00 am on Fridays and Saturdays. Hours are subject to change. Tickets are available for pre-purchase for $45 for General Admission ($40 Children / Seniors / Military), and $35 for Colorado Residents. Visitors are required to pre-book a time slot for entry. Recognized in Fast Company's 2020 list of The World's 50 Most Innovative Companies, Meow Wolf is a Santa Fe-based arts and entertainment company that creates immersive, interactive experiences to transport audiences of all ages into fantastic realms of story and exploration. The company's first location in Santa Fe opened in 2016 and showcases the THEA Award-winning, international sensation, House Of Eternal Return, where two million visitors have now discovered a multidimensional mystery house with secret passages, portals to magical worlds, and surreal, maximalist and mesmerizing art exhibits. In 2019, Meow Wolf expanded beyond Santa Fe and opened Kaleidoscape, the world’s first artist-driven ride at Elitch Gardens in Denver. Meow Wolf recently opened their second permanent installation, Omega Mart, at AREA15 in Las Vegas and their third permanent installation in Denver is slated to open September 17, 2021. Meow Wolf is proud to be the only certified B-Corporation in the themed entertainment industry, with a team dedicated to social impact and building a more inclusive and sustainable economy.
