This LinkedIn page represents both EmpathyTech and EmpathyTech Europe. Together we are a global initiative working to advance technology that truly serves people. EmpathyTech brings together innovators, service providers, researchers, and changemakers to support inclusive innovation in care, education, health, and social services. We focus on communities and sectors that are often left behind by traditional technology and investment priorities. Our mission is to place empathy at the center of how technology is created, funded, and used. We connect leaders, elevate underserved voices, and support solutions that deliver real and measurable impact. Through events, storytelling, collaboration, and policy work, EmpathyTech helps shift the focus from technology for profit to technology for purpose. Care, learning, and inclusion deserve more than outdated tools and broken systems. We are here to change that.
