The business case for disability inclusion:
Why it matters

Reframing disability as a driver of innovation, impact, and growth.

We’ll offer a compelling look at why disability inclusion is not just a matter of equity, but a clear business advantage. Through a blend of data, real-world examples, and sharp storytelling, Anessa will dismantle the myth that inclusion is a side project or solely the domain of DEI teams. Instead, she’ll show how disability impacts far more than just the individuals who identify as disabled—it affects families, caregivers, and consumer behavior at large. With billions of disabled people worldwide, this is a massive and growing market segment that businesses can no longer afford to ignore.

Participants will leave equipped with the language and insights to hold meaningful conversations with senior leaders and decision-makers. Attendees will access shareable, curated TED-style talks to help spread the message internally and push forward change. This is not inspiration for inspiration’s sake, it’s a call to action backed by data, designed to drive real business outcomes.
