Salesforce Signs On as Founding Partner of InclusionHub, a Comprehensive Digital Accessibility Resource & Database

InclusionHub

Salesforce has joined InclusionHub as a founding partner, underlining the increasingly important role the digital accessibility resource and database plays as a tool for educating and informing those who work to improve digital experiences. With more than 150,000 customers—including more than 80% of its fellow Fortune 500 members—and 36,000 employees, Salesforce is in a unique position to impact digital accessibility. As noted in the company’s 2021 Stakeholder Impact report, “Disability inclusion and accessibility are fundamental to our belief that businesses can be powerful platforms for social change and that our higher purpose is working toward Equality for All.” In joining InclusionHub as a founding partner, Salesforce is supporting a first-of-its-kind digital accessibility resource and database designed to help businesses, organizations and institutions with a digital presence learn more about digital inclusion solutions. Launched in December 2020, InclusionHub is built on crowd-sourced ratings and reviews from a global audience of digital accessibility experts and practitioners, and provides an unbiased, transparent and searchable database of companies that specialize in all aspects of digital inclusion. “We are privileged to be in a position where we can help create something with and for the community,” said Tom Frantz, Senior Manager of Accessibility Partnerships and Public Relations at Salesforce. “The role that InclusionHub plays as both a centralized resource, dedicated to the people who do this critical work, and a transparent platform to share truths is paramount. We’re excited to have the opportunity to ditch the corporate-heavy messaging and uphold the integrity of our community’s stories. We'll aim to help keep InclusionHub relevant by regarding it as a work-in-progress in collaboration with the community's evolving insight, feedback and needs. I truly believe in this initiative because the people behind InclusionHub are dedicated to the mission.” As a founding partner, Salesforce will work closely with the InclusionHub team to provide content and expert insight for the InclusionHub audience, and provide strategic advice on the continued expansion of the initiative, alongside existing founding partners Be My Eyes, an accessibility app for the blind and low-vision community, and Morey Creative Studios, a New York-based digital marketing agency with a strong focus on digital accessibility. “I'm delighted that Salesforce is joining us in supporting the critical work of improving the digital experience of millions of people through InclusionHub” said Will Butler, VP of Community at Be My Eyes. “With their support and collaboration, we are going to have a bigger impact than any one of us could have alone!” “I cannot imagine a more perfect partner for InclusionHub,” said Jon Sasala, President of Morey Creative Studios. “The platform has been incredibly well received since launch, and is starting to deliver on its mission of helping accessibility practitioners to learn about the variety of solutions available to them. But everyone involved is also conscious of the fact that, while we’re focused on doing things the right way for the communities that InclusionHub serves, we’re not perfect and that we might make some mistakes along the way. In addition to their expertise and support, the team at Salesforce have already contributed to that sense of openness and authenticity on this project, and I am confident they will help to accelerate InclusionHub’s growth, which in turn will help us all to create a better, more inclusive web for everyone.” To learn more about InclusionHub, including the upcoming “Certified Inclusive” initiative, visit inclusionhub.com.

BLKBOX.ai launches intelligent media buying platform, enabling companies to scale profitably

BLKBOX

Over $378B is spent every year on digital ad spend as companies seek to engage consumers online using the latest technology to enhance their user experience and make purchases. AdTech business BLKBOX is launching their intelligent media platform to help companies make this ad spend go further and faster for them. Their SaaS-based intelligent and automated media buying platform generates profitable campaigns and scale ad spend 3x while reducing the time taken to manage end-to-end media buying from 6 hours to just 6 minutes. The platform offers enterprise businesses, large corporates and SMBs the ability to accelerate their digital campaigns using just three inputs: the creative assets, budget and KPIs. The platform automates the heavy lifting in campaign creation, audience creation, creative testing, advanced analytics, determines the winning bids, and also allocates budget against the best performing campaigns. Critically, BLKBOX acts as a growth enabler, frees time for media buyers to focus on outcomes, think strategically and take a wider view on spend as they target growth. Athar Zia, CEO and co-founder at BLKBOX commented: “Advertising and buying media serves as the growth engine for so many companies and we’ve seen how technology has enhanced creative outputs on so many levels. Yet there has been no innovation in large parts of the wider industry, especially for media buyers. It still remains a manual and time consuming affair and prone to human error. Our intelligent automation will quickly remedy this and deliver our express purpose, to help companies scale profitable ad campaigns. Just as the end creative is a growth hack for brands, BLKBOX exists to be the power supply to deliver that growth for all companies.” BLKBOX was established in May 2020 by ex-Facebook industry pioneers Athar Zia and Jay Shah who managed over $1b in ad spend for companies using the social media giant. BLKBOX has been growing revenues 50% month-on-month while operating a gated experience for multi-million dollar worth private and listed billion-dollar worth companies in the gaming industry over the last 12 months. Having helped them scale their ad spend 3x, BLKBOX is now opening their intelligent media buying platform to every company globally. “We have seen, at close quarters, how ad spend has worked for companies. The process is just not fit for purpose. Advertisers are judged on driving successful, profitable ad campaigns and fundamentally company growth. We are here to help. Using our experience and expertise in algorithms, we will improve operational efficiency, while removing human error and helping companies scale profitably” add Athar Zia. The BLKBOX intelligent media buying platform will initially focus on social media ad spend, chiefly on Facebook ads. Their reach will broaden over the coming year to encapsulate Google, TikTok, Snapchat, Apple, Twitter and Ad Networks. Athar Zia added: “We’re initially competing in a $378B annual digital ad spend marketplace but will broaden this quickly. We are democratising the media buying space, making it easier and faster for people to make ad spend decisions. Our overall aim is to turn anyone, regardless of experience, into a best in class media buyer. This will enable companies to scale faster, focusing on making products and creating experiences that their customers want.” In June 2021 BLKBOX were announced as one of three winners of the Facebook Business Hackathon which sought technologies that help companies scale growth. They were judged on our four criteria points - Innovation, Impact, Socially Postivitiness, Shippability. BLKBOX was announced as a winner alongside Microsoft and SAP.
