With this award, the iSocial Foundation aims to recognize the work of Dinder Club, the first dating and leisure app designed for people with intellectual disabilities. This pioneering initiative promotes social inclusion through technology, offering a safe and accessible environment to facilitate personal relationships and group activities.

On November 13, the iSocial Foundation took part in the Catalonia ICT Day, during which the Catalonia Digital Innovation Awards – GrausTIC 2025 were presented. Once again, we sponsored the category Prize for Social Integration through Digitalization, which seeks to highlight initiatives that have made an exceptional contribution to social inclusion through technology.

This year, the award went to Dinder Club, the first app for dating and leisure activities specifically designed for people with intellectual disabilities. Created in Barcelona, the app provides a secure and accessible space for building social, friendly, and romantic connections, as well as group activities led by professionals. With this innovative proposal, Dinder Club responds to a long-standing demand from the community: having safe and inclusive spaces to socialize.

The app, certified with the Easy-to-Read seal and developed in collaboration with organizations such as Dincat, AURA, acidH, and the Catalan Down Syndrome Foundation, includes specific requirements to ensure user protection: being of legal age, having a disability degree equal to or greater than 33%, being a member of a social entity, and possessing basic reading and writing skills. It is currently available for iOS and Android devices, with plans to expand nationwide.

This award follows four previous editions that recognized equally innovative initiatives: Digitalitza’t, by Fundació Sargim (2024), a digital support and training service that helps at-risk youth become digital agents; Audivers 360º, by ACAPPS (2023), a pioneering immersive speech therapy project; Biel Digital Glasses (2022), smart glasses that adapt reality for people with low vision; and Ajuda’ls a créixer, by Fundació Pere Tarrés (2021), which enabled virtual contact with families during lockdown.

Through this award, the iSocial Foundation reaffirms its commitment to a people-centered digital transformation, promoting equal opportunities and social inclusion through technology.
