COMSATS – DeafTawk Meeting (Inclusive Tech partnership)

Date: 14 August 2023 — COMSATS Secretariat meeting with DeafTawk founders.

Publishable page content:
COMSATS leadership met with DeafTawk founders to explore academic and student collaborations for the real-time sign language app. CSS is a natural partner: student teams can extend DeafTawk features (medical-appointment integrations, low-bandwidth video optimizations) as semester projects, with COMSATS offering incubation support for promising prototypes.

Suggested project pipeline (to publish as a call-to-action):
• Phase 0: 1-day ideation hackathon (host by CSS) — 3 winning teams.
• Phase 1: 3-month project sprint with faculty mentors + DeafTawk product team.
• Phase 2: Pilot field trials at partner health clinics (UX & accessibility testing).

Impact KPI: number of active test users, latency reduction %, successful integration with appointment systems.
