Access to Success conference on Accessibility, Inclusion, and Universal Design, will be the first such event geared specifically towards MBA students that addresses the business case of accessibility and universal design. It will include two keynote speeches, a panel of entrepreneurs working on universal design products, and a case competition on universal design for MBA students in Canada and the U.S.

In recent years, graduate business schools across Canada and the US have made great strides in the diversity and inclusion (D&I) space. School and student-led efforts in diversity of culture, gender, and sexual orientation have contributed to a mosaic of enriching perspectives. Effectively, these diverse perspectives bring a community one step closer to reaching its full interpersonal and economic potential. We are not there yet, as there still remains a facet of D&I far less often addressed: accessibility and inclusion of students and professionals with disabilities.
