Episode 2: Ken Jones, Founder of Circular Software
For our second episode I wanted to introduce Ken Jones, who tells his remarkable story of growing up working in the family printing press, becoming an early digital pioneer in 'Big Publishing', and then breaking out on his own to found a successful software company building tools for the industry.
We talk through his unique journey, and reflect on how a task-oriented, human-centric approach led him to produce some really deeply useful tools for the ‘real world’ problems faced by publishers, in a world of idealised standards and walled gardens.

Richard is an amazing individual with a long and rich history in accessible software and standards development. and our conversation covered his fascinating story, as well as the many ways that accessibility links the worlds of technology and the humans using it.
