Each year, the Accessibility Forum attracts accessibility coordinators, architects, designers, public administration officials, business leaders, NGOs, and experts from a wide range of disciplines. Together, they define the future of accessible and functional spaces. The upcoming edition promises to be a hub for knowledge exchange, networking, and direct engagement with market leaders, partners, and exhibitors presenting innovative, barrier-free solutions. It will also provide a platform for developing practical strategies that address the real needs of today’s space users – regardless of ability, age, or life situation.
Key themes:
-
The power of revitalisation – Can conservationists, architects, and investors find common ground? How can we preserve the identity of historic sites while introducing new functions and accessibility?
-
Neurodiversity in the workplace – How to move beyond appearances and respond to the real needs of employees with diverse neurotypes?
-
Business challenges in accessibility – Costs, time, and processes. Why is accessibility a strategic priority rather than just a compliance issue? How does implementation look in practice?
-
What defines good architecture? – Does aesthetics align with accessibility? Are architectural icons truly inclusive?
-
The Polish Accessibility Act – After six months in force, what works, what needs adjustment, and what lies ahead for the market?
-
Accessibility in e-commerce – An opportunity for customers or a challenge for logistics? How is new legislation reshaping online retail?
-
AI and assistive technologies – Is artificial intelligence the key to a barrier-free world? How should accessible innovations be developed and financed?
-
Lost among the aisles – Designing retail spaces that do not overwhelm. Navigation, communication, and inclusivity in modern retail.
Accessibility in Practice
An integral part of the Forum will be the exhibition zone, showcasing the best and most innovative solutions in accessibility, smart access, and universal design. This space is aimed at companies, institutions, and startups looking to reach a professional and engaged audience—designers, property managers, decision-makers, public administrators, and investors.
Discounted early-bird tickets are available until the end of September, with registration open through the event’s official website.
