Economics Minister Clement: Accessibility has a considerable innovation and growth potential Extract: Aktion Mensch and Stiftung Digitale Chancen honoured the best German accessible Websites with the BIENE Award in Berlin last night. Golden BIENEs were awarded to the 'Postbank' and the 'Integrationsfachdienst Profil Hamburg'. All in all 19 websites were honoured for their exceptional accessibility. Federal Economics Minister Wolfgang Clement emphasized in his welcoming address that every Internet application has to follow accessibility standards. Herein lies a considerable innovation and growth potential for a 'digital Germany'.
