Catalyst in further developing the future of Sign Language in South Africa
Product
Signo is developing a product which aims to transform communication systems for the Deaf community and hard of hearing through technology. The solution is based on the founder’s background, who is a CODA (child of deaf adults). Born and raised in a Deaf community, he saw and experienced the challenges his parents faced first hand. Simple things such as buying groceries or doing a transaction at the bank.
