Technology is a part of our every day lives, a part that most of us could not imagine living without, used solve problems, add convenience and close gaps. What if you were not able to use technology? What if a disability limited you using technology to it's full potential? In this episode, Anastasia speaks with Mateo Salvatto, a 21-year-old tech entrepreneur from Buenos Aires, Argentina. When he was 17 he won the “International Robotics Champion” title, and a year later created his first company - Asteroid Technologies. Their first product, Háblalo is an app that assists more than 100.000 people with disabilities from around the world to use technology to it's full potential - all entirely for free. Mateo serves as Head of Innovation for ORT Schools and was recognized as Humanitarian Innovator of the Year by MIT Technology Review.
