<h1>About Sponsorship</h1>
<p>
ASSETS 2025 is the leading conference in the research and design of accessible
technology for people with disabilities and older adults. It will be held Oct 26 - 29,
2025 in Denver, Colorado, USA. There will also be a virtual component for people who
cannot physically attend. The organizing committee is led this year by Dr. Shaun Kane of
Google and Dr. Kristen Shinohara from the Rochester Institute of Technology of
Rochester, NY, USA and includes top international scholars in the field.
</p>
<p>
Our conference community is composed of scholars, educators, and students in computing
technology and accessibility. Roughly half of our attendees are undergraduate, MS, or
PhD students. The conference will include research talks, poster and demo presentations,
a doctoral consortium, and community-building events such as accessible cultural
activities and a reception. Based on attendance in prior years, we anticipate 200-250
attendees.
</p>
<h2>How the Money will be Spent</h2>
<p>
We are excited to host the conference in Denver, Colorado. Sponsorship funds will help
support accessibility services such as sign language interpreters, provide travel
scholarships to students with disabilities, and support conference activities such as
the doctoral consortium for PhD students and an accessible reception. Sponsorship will
also help support the virtual component of the conference, which is important for those
whose accessibility needs prevent them from attending the conference in person.
</p>
<p>
Any leftover funds will be used to support activities in support of SIGACCESS’s mission
of promoting the professional interests of students and computing personnel with
disabilities, educating the public to support careers for people with disabilities, and
supporting the international community of researchers and professionals applying
computing and information technologies to empower individuals with disabilities and
older adults.
