Amsaan has joined forces with MOTIONGATE™ Dubai to enhance the theme park experience for Deaf visitors. This partnership highlights a significant leap towards inclusivity in the entertainment industry, with Amsaan leading the charge in making theme park experiences accessible to everyone. Traditional methods of communication, such as printed signs or verbal instructions, are challenging for the local Deaf community and can lead to misunderstandings.

This project is not static; based on feedback from the Deaf community and park visitors, there will be continuous enhancement of these Deaf-friendly features. Vitalii Mykhalchuk, CEO of AMSAAN, stated “This partnership is not just about making a theme park accessible; it’s about fostering a culture of inclusivity.
