Here is my annual post on the most widely-attended assistive tech events that take place throughout the year.  Since the year is still young, complete information may not be available for every <\/p>\n

event.  If you can augment this list with your own information, feel free to contribute via the accessible contact form on the blog homepage.  also, if you plan to attend an event as a speaker or <\/p>\n

vendor, let me know and I\u2019ll include your details along with the event.  Don\u2019t forget to provide your booth number, if you have one. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Finally, this is by no means an exhaustive list, so if I\u2019ve missed one that you think I should include, let me know.<\/p>\n
