Reverse Pitch: Canadian Ecosystem for Accessibility Startups

As you know, accessibility tech founders and startups often face limited access to resources and opportunities available in the broader startup ecosystem. That's why we're bringing together Canada’s leading disability organizations to present innovations, membership opportunities, programs, and opportunities to drive a more accessible society. 

In this jam-packed event, expect to hear live pitches, insightful presentations on programs and resources, and a Q&A session with partners:

• CNIB (Canadian National Institute for the Blind) | Vision
• OBI (Ontario Brain Institute) | Neuroscience 
• CABHI (Centre for Aging + Brain health Innovation) | Aging / Neuroscience
• AGE-WELL | Aging
• MaRS Discovery District | Mobility
• KITE UHN (University Health Network) | Rehabilitation 
• BDC | General / Mental Health
• Praxis Spinal Cord Injury Institute | SCI (Spinal Cord Injury)
• and more
  

The event will conclude with networking, offering attendees the chance to build meaningful connections and explore potential collaborations.
