An Irish entrepreneur, born with sight loss, has secured €2 million in funding to develop pioneering AI software to make the internet more accessible for people of all abilities. Prompted by the development of generative AI, the company, Nexus Inclusion, is set to launch ahead of the European Accessibility Act (EAA) coming into force on June 28th, 2025. The EU legislation requires all businesses trading in Europe to have digitally accessible websites, apps and online products. Founder and CEO Kyran O'Mahoney, an award-winning tech entrepreneur, was born with a 17 per cent vision. He knows firsthand the challenges of navigating life in a digital era. "I founded Nexus Inclusion to change the world so no one is excluded because they are different," commented founder Kyran O'Mahoney. "It is my firm belief that technology and, more importantly, the emergence of AI is the next thing to change the world for people excluded from digital products." According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), there are 1.3 billion people with a disability worldwide. One in four people needs assistance to access online content, yet less than four per cent* of the top one million websites globally are accessible to people with disabilities. Combining deep knowledge of accessibility, technology, and GenAI, the Nexus Inclusion tech will exceed legislative standards. Unlike accessible tools currently on the market, NexusAI offers real-time solutions for people of all abilities, empowering people with disabilities and those with social or economic restrictions to use technology independently. "If you look at the banking sector, it is still incredibly inaccessible, yet we have an inherent right to financial independence and financial freedom. Some elderly, vision-impaired or people with learning difficulties can't read their own bank statements. Nexus Inclusion's solution will help with this issue. The Nexus AI tool can summarise the key information at a reading level appropriate to the user in a format they are comfortable with. It automatically adds captions or transcripts and ensures that digital products work with assistive technologies. Every customer we onboard will make the world more digitally equal," he continued. Nexus Inclusion employs seven people and plans to build a team of 30 by the end of 2026. Roles are currently available for developers, business development and marketing. The company is positioned for significant growth in the digital accessibility market, estimated at $706 million globally, growing to approximately $958 million by 2029. With EU-wide legislation around the corner, O'Mahoney believes digital accessibility is just the first step, "We need to move beyond Digital Accessibility, which is about making accommodations for people with different abilities. As someone who has grown up with limited vision, I don't want to be accommodated. I want to be included in every aspect of life. To me, this is inclusion. At Nexus Inclusion, our objective is to bridge the digital divide so no one is excluded because they are different. We are all different!" he says. For more information, see: www.nexusinclusion.com.

Scott Lingle grew up in Indianapolis with parents who were always looking for a side hustle and ways to eliminate debt. Their entrepreneurial pursuits included flipping  houses—"I lived in 20 houses growing up," Lingle says—and rehabilitating a host of other products for resale. Scott Lingle knew early on that he wanted to be in sales. After a distinguished career in the insurance industry, he took a big entrepreneurial leap. In 2015, he co-founded Remodel Health, which after initial growing pains became one of fasting-growing firms in Indianapolis throughout the early 2020s. It was ranked 13th on IBJ's list in 2024, with a 123% increase in annual revenue between 2021 and 2023, topping out at nearly $15 million. Lingle stepped down as CEO several years ago but stayed as board chairman while pursuing other interests and investing opportunities. Among his projects, he co-founded High School Hustle, an initiative to encourage Indianapolis students to start and grow businesses with the guidance of mentors who have done the same. It's now in its second year and available at nearly 20 high schools. There's a secondary goal that could be of benefit for the Indianapolis startup community: creating networks of well-established entrepreneurs who fund the students work and the younger business leaders who coach them. In this week's edition of the podcast, Lingle shares the lessons he learned about taking chances, building elite teams and embracing the quintessential entrepreneurial challenge of pivoting multiple times. He also lays out the strategy behind High School Hustle and its plans for national expansion.

In 2014, Naveen Rao left his researcher job at Qualcomm to co-found machine intelligence platform Nervana. About two and a half years later, Nervana sold to Intel for more than $400 million. After a few years at Intel, Naveen became CEO and co-founder of open source startup MosaicML, which helped companies build and train large AI models more efficiently and affordably. Approximately two and a half years later, Databricks acquired that company for $1.3 billion and made him VP of Generative AI. Naveen is a neuroscientist with multiple exits, so we spoke at length about shifting from engineering into entrepreneurship. If you have a technical role and are considering starting up, he shares his perspective on balancing day-to-day responsibilities while validating your idea, the importance of challenging industry assumptions, and finding your market niche.  We also talked about who should — and should not — startup in stealth and addressed some of the current challenges facing the generative AI startup ecosystem, such as the rapid failure rates of companies due to high GPU costs and overinvestment in 2021-2022.  Runtime: 51:16 EPISODE BREAKDOWN (2:54) “Evidence is always less than you want. At some point you kind of have to take a leap.” (5:37) “My journey with Nervana was, it was immediately clear to me that the world needed this.” (11:52) “Get in the head of someone who's going to exchange money for your services and products.” (14:54) Why he's not a big fan of remote work. (18:35) “It is on you as an adult to find balance that you can work with. It is not the company's duty to do this.” (20:31) Why product companies should “probably not” startup in stealth. (23:11) “It wasn't the right time to sell. I didn't look at it like that at all.” (26:32) Hiring and retaining generative AI talent is “a hard problem right now.” (30:16) “Companies are failing pretty fast because the GPU spends are so big.” (35:04) Interacting with Databricks' developer community. (43:11) Naveen on accelerators: “I think there are actually faster ways to learn.” (45:05) When it comes to angel investing, “I'm looking for creativity, honestly.” (47:34) If you were interviewing for a job with an early-stage startup, what's one question you'd have to ask the CEO?  LINKS Naveen Rao @NaveenGRao Databricks Databricks picks up MosaicML, an OpenAI competitor, for $1.3B Intel is paying more than $400 million to buy deep-learning startup Nervana Systems The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion, Jonathan Haidt Ali Partovi Subscribe to Fund/Build/Scale on Substack: fundbuildscale.substack.com
