Across China: Business incubator enables people with disabilities to embrace entrepreneurship

From sign language information products developed by hearing-impaired designers to sports rehabilitation launched by entrepreneurs with physical impairments -- the goods and services emerging from a business incubation base in southwest China's Chongqing Municipality are proving that disabilities do not limit people's ability to work, but help embrace the strengths.

Wang Lin, 37, has a physical impairment and opened a flower business at the incubation base in 2022.

"I came here to prove myself," said Wang, who had already made a name for herself as a florist before starting her business at the base. She is a national-level technical expert and an inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of traditional flower arrangement, and she also works as a flower art teacher.

"I feel that my value has not been fully discovered, and I want to lead and help more disabled people," Wang said.
