    Our mission: Inclusion through synergy

    At accessify.live and iRewind, we firmly believe that true accessibility at events is not a "nice-to-have" but a fundamental right. To not just formulate this goal, but to implement it on a globally scalable level, we have chosen a unique path: A hybrid model in which a non-profit association and a for-profit corporation work hand in hand.

    The Model

    The best of both worlds

    Behind this dual strategy lies a clear insight: Real societal change (impact) only emerges when social depth meets technological reach.

    The Association

    accessify.live, Guardian of the mission

    The association ensures that the benefit for people with disabilities always remains at the center. Through close exchange with those affected and the acquisition of funding, the association specifically finances inclusion features, such as ultra-low-latency solutions for the hearing impaired, that would often be cut in purely commercial models due to insufficient financial return (ROI). With us, these features are mandatory, because their social value justifies their existence.

    The Corporation

    iRewind AG, The sales engine

    iRewind AG forms the operational backbone and, as the operator, is responsible for the professional execution and worldwide rollout of the platform. It brings the necessary infrastructure and first-class support to set global standards. When a major corporation books our service for its shareholder meeting, the AG ensures seamless scaling. This success acts as a lever: It refinances the entire platform, on which accessibility for all participants then naturally comes along for the ride.

    The Future

    A tandem for the future

    In this tandem, the roles are clearly defined: The association holds the copyrights to the specific inclusion modules and commissions the AG with their further development. The AG in turn invests in the commercial add-ons and the scaling of the overall solution.

    This is how we create a self-sustaining system: The association protects the quality of inclusion, while the AG provides the necessary market clout. Together, we make events accessible; for everyone, everywhere, and without compromise.
