MaRS Mornings - Mind over matter: New possibilities with neurotech

For millions of children with disabilities, the ability to perform simple actions—like turning on a light, playing with a toy, or communicating a need—remains out of reach. Assistive technologies exist, but too often they are costly, complicated or designed without accessibility at their core.

Possibility Neurotechnologies is working to change that. Its flagship product, Think2Switch, transforms affordable EEG headsets into powerful brain-computer interfaces (BCI). With only their thoughts, children with physcial limitations can control smart devices and express intent, radically expanding access to communication and independence.

In this fireside chat, Possibility Neurotechnologies co-founder and CEO Dion Kelly joins journalist Manjula Selvarajah to discuss the company’s journey, the promise of BCIs, and how inclusive design can unlock new possibilities for millions.
