Abstract: The subject and problem of the work refer to information and communication technologies, which are one of the most important prereq­uisites for life and work for people with disabilities. From education itself, so­cial life, professional rehabilitation and employment, information and com­munication technologies are a factor without which participation is impos­sible for people with disabilities, regardless of the form. This paper singles out one particular aspect of the use of information and communication technology, which depends on the level of development of the country and the existential status of a specific person and what type of disability it is. In­vesting in information technology and digital competences of people with disabilities has a pronounced positive impact on the development of social entrepreneurship in the context of companies for the employment of people with disabilities. When talking about information and communication tech­nologies, we are talking about different equipment, software and the like, with the help of which people with disabilities can communicate more eas­ily; they have a great impact on all people in the world, especially on peo­ple with disabilities.
