Accessibility

We are committed to making our event accessible and welcoming for all attendees. We work to reduce barriers across our venues, programming, and services, and will work with you to identify reasonable accommodations that support your participation.

Accessibility Requests

If you require an accommodation, we encourage you to reach out to us at info@asugsvsummit.com.

We review all requests with care and will make every reasonable effort to support your participation in the event. While some accommodations require advance notice, we will always do our best to assist, even for requests made closer to the event.

We understand that access needs can vary and evolve, and we welcome open communication to help us provide the best possible experience.

Service animals are very welcome at our event.

We recognise that support needs vary, and we’re here to work with you to make your visit as smooth as possible.

If you’d like to discuss anything in advance, please get in touch. We’ll give every request careful consideration and work with you to find the best possible solution.
