The Inclusive Innovation Experience

Engaging and inspiring, the event brought together accessibility advocates from across government, industry and academia offering them the unique opportunity to connect with each other and experience life-changing innovations for themselves.

Behind them is a screen displaying the logo of Inclusive Innovations and a large QR code. Two banners flank the screen, and city buildings are visible through the windows. Audience members are seated in the foreground.People gather around a curved bar counter in a modern indoor space during a networking or break session at an event.
