Our mission is to ensure that technological progress leaves no one behind.

The Inclusive AI Institute is a joint initiative by the Global AI Competition & Innovation Lab and the Gallaudet University's Artificial Intelligence, Accessibility and Sign Language Center (AIASL), the world-leading university for deaf and hard-of-hearing education and research.

The Inclusive AI Institute (IAII) produces research, organizes events, and works with governments and companies to make AI usable for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. We train industry leaders and policymakers to design inclusive AI — and to reward it.

Join us to deliver a more inclusive AI.
