Our Mission
Because inclusion matters.
We see a world where companies are unified by a shared belief that access to web content and it's knowledge is to be shared with EVERYONE. By showcasing that they are an ``EQUAL ACCESS COMPANY``, businesses can inspire others to do the same. Sharing literally IS caring, and that mantra holds true in the world-wide-web more than it ever did in Kindergarten. Access is for everyone.
A Shared Belief
Inspirational quotes from like-minded individuals with big beliefs.
Inequality, in all its forms — gender, LGBTQ, racial, or otherwise — is an issue that every company must address for its own benefit and to create a better world. We believe businesses need to focus on closing the equality gap with the same energy put into creating new products and markets.

It’s not only that diversity and inclusion are good for our business. It’s more fundamental than that — it’s simply right.
