Tobii Dynavox

Tobii Dynavox is the market leader in assistive technology for communication. Our custom designed communication aids & corresponding support system enable people with disabilities such as cerebral palsy, ALS, autism, spinal cord injury & aphasia to communicate & live their lives to the fullest. Our offering ranges from eye-controlled communication aids for speech generation to tools for the special education classroom. We empower people with disabilities to do what they once did, or never thought possible, such as expressing themselves in a voice of their own or developing literacy skills. We call this Power to be You, and it explains our belief that every individual has the right to live their life to the fullest, communicate, and live a more independent life. This makes a major impact on the people using our technology and those around them. It also benefits entire communities, healthcare systems & society at large. With integrated solutions featuring hardware, software, clinically developed language systems, training, and dedicated support, Tobii Dynavox stands out as a truly global, full solution provider in the assistive technology for communication market. There is an enormous unmet need for such products. Globally, around 50 million individuals need communication aids to communicate and interact effectively, while only about 2 million are diagnosed with this need every year. Furthermore, a subset of only about 2%, or 40,000, of those diagnosed are actually served every year due to low awareness, poor implementation support & lack of funding infrastructure — even in some of the most well-developed countries. We leverage a global distribution network and an extensive funding support system to enable as many as possible to benefit from our communication solutions. Headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, Tobii Dynavox employs around 500 people and covers a global market with offices in the US, the UK, Germany, China, Norway with reselling partners in 60+ markets.
