On Friday, December 1st, 2023, Atos will proudly host it’s 3rd edition of "Innovation in Disability Inclusion" event, marking the occasion of the International Day of People with Disability (#IDPWD). This day, sanctioned by the United Nations, is an annual celebration dedicated to recognizing the contributions and achievements of individuals with disabilities.
Just as we've done in previous years, this year's event will take place virtually and open to everyone interested without registration.
Join us as we continue to champion accessibility & disability inclusion at the workplace and showcase our and our partner’s initiatives towards a more accessible and inclusive world.
We hope this event will inspire and motivate you to support accessibility and digital inclusion to ensure everyone can thrive at work.
Our live will feature a comprehensive approach, with both academic, expert and employee perspectives and insights from the Accessibility, Diversity and Inclusion and Digital Workplace business leaders. These will be presented through engaging keynotes, enlightening fireside talks, concrete demonstrations of how people use assistive technologies at work and dynamic roundtable discussions led by the Accessibility experts.
What's more, we have a special treat in store!
Atos employees will take center stage to showcase the practical application of Assistive Technologies in their daily lives and for business purposes. This unique featured event promises to be an eye-opening experience, demonstrating the real-world impact of accessibility and assistive technologies.
Join us for an event filled with knowledge, inspiration, and practical insights at our Innovation in Disability Inclusion event. We can't wait to have you with us.
