THE Big Idea Showcase

The "What's the Big Idea" showcase will focus on ten (10) high-impact startups in the disability technology sector who have applied and been selected to present from the Disability Innovation Forum’s stage. The Disability Innovation Forum seeks to highlight early stage companies with big, bold ideas, new voices, and fresh takes that will introduce innovative solutions to persistent challenges in the disability sector. We are happy to give our platform and stage to ten new companies to present their work and engage in animated Q&A with our moderator. 

The application submission date will close on Friday, August 14, 2026.
