Someone following Aspiritech's lead
While researching something for my side business today I found that an Aspergers support group in Tucson AZ is trying to start a company like Aspiritech. I think this is great and since I live in Phoenix offered to help. Anyone else found companies like Aspiritech?

Join us in creating an Asperger-friendly company.
And any discussion of this would be incomplete without a shout out to Specialisterne
This is innovation. However the key to this innovation is the economic benefits to those without disabilities as well. While my organization focuses more so on social strategy and manufacturing opportunities what will hinder this kind of progress is the seen benefits to the economy as a whole. Items such as the pursuit for self-sufficiency, the employment such as for support workers to train employees and non-tech related employment inclusions. Not everyone with autism or a DD is tech savvy. I simply know enough to get by and will never be a programmer for instance.
The PR for very high functioning individuals in the opportunity creation field is a different set of challenges then that of inclusion opportunity pursuits for individuals that are more likely substantially disabled. This does not mean individuals that are tech savvy are or are not substantially disabled. Individuals with A.S do not qualify for Regional Center where I live.
