IBM has a long-standing commitment to hiring people with disabilities. Our commitment goes all the way back to 1914, when the first person with a disability was hired. For more information about the history of IBM, visit www.ibm.com/diversity.

"We need to create an environment that is not only accessible, but is open to all people. That's a huge challenge. But, I'll tell you, we have got a world class team here. And I know, I've never met a team with more passion. And with a world class team and with the kind of passion you all have, I believe we can do anything....."
