We’re still feeling the energy from DisabilityNext™ Summit this week. 💚

The energy and sense of inclusion in the room were palpable, and this day 2 recap reel captures just a glimpse of it. Over two days, leaders, innovators, advocates, and changemakers came together to learn, share, connect, and explore what’s next for disability inclusion in the workplace.

People left with new connections, practical strategies, and actionable takeaways to bring back to their workplaces and put into practice. That’s what DisabilityNext™ is about: sharing innovative ideas, learning from one another, and turning conversations into action that advances disability inclusion in the workplace.

Thank you to every speaker, attendee, sponsor, and partner who made these two days possible. The Summit may be over, but the work continues!

Thank you to every speaker, attendee, sponsor, and partner who brought their experiences, ideas, and energy to DisabilityNext™ today. A special thank you to our Diamond Sponsor, Salesforce, and Silver Sponsor, Waymo, for supporting DisabilityNext™ and making this possible.
