Abstract
Research and Development (R&D) in IT for people with disabilities feels the pressure to bring the results of their projects successfully to the market. R&D in this field, after a pilot period, now must show its impact on practice, on the quality of life of target groups and therefore on related markets. The take up of results of research projects more and more becomes a key issue of any call for proposal for research and development activities. The European Commission for example clearly states in its IST programme that proposals have to show how they can reach this goal.
