On the twenty-second floor of the CapitaSky building, overlooking the southern shores of Singapore’s coastline, deaf arts and music artiste Lily Goh enraptures an audience in sign language during a workshop.

Her fingers move non-stop as she communicates, her expressive eyes do a lot of the talking, her enthusiasm remains infectious throughout the 90-minute workshop, with simultaneous interpretation of her sign language, getting her message across easily to those in the room, with 20 of the 25 people being employees of Equinix, a company that provides global digital infrastructure services.
