Yesterday, I was privileged to witness a transformative moment in assistive technology at Wandercraft’s keynote event in their new headquarters in New York City. After 11 years of relentless innovation, Wandercraft unveiled its revolutionary personal exoskeleton.

What made this event so profoundly moving? It was witnessing actual wheelchair users take their first steps, some for the first time, with this incredible device. As someone who deeply understands the challenges of limited mobility, I was incredibly touched by these demonstrations.

The highlight of the day was meeting the inspiring visionaries behind this life-changing innovation, Nicolas Simon and Jean-Louis Constanza. Their dedication to building Wandercraft and creating this solution resonated deeply with me. For 18 years, I’ve dreamed of technology like this, and their unwavering commitment has made that dream a reality.

Wandercraft’s work transcends mere technological advancement; it’s about restoring dignity, independence, and a sense of wholeness. Thanks to their grit, determination, and perseverance, people like me can now stand, walk, and feel complete again. This is about reclaiming our humanity.

To the entire Wandercraft team: your selfless dedication to improving lives is truly inspiring. The world needs more individuals like you, who transform bold visions into tangible realities and bring hope to those who need it most.

This wasn’t just a product launch; it was a celebration of human potential and the power of perseverance. Standing there, watching others experience the joy of taking their first steps, I knew I was witnessing the dawn of a new chapter – a future filled with greater mobility and hope.
