2018

The idea for Feelware was born when, while buying a kitchen, Robert noticed by chance that household appliances were not accessible for blind people. He decides that it is unacceptable to exclude people from access to hot food and clean clothes simply because they cannot see well.

2019

Together with a group of blind people, the first Feelware products are created. They are equipped with tactile symbols and help our first customers with cooking and washing from summer 2019.

Feelware's mission to enable visually impaired people drwas the attention of Rotterdam School of Management to the early stage startup.
