Wednesday, October 29, 2025, 9:30 AM–1:30 PM at Aller Media, Copenhagen – and online
On October 29, 2025, I am hosting an official event in Copenhagen focusing on artificial intelligence and digital accessibility.
The event is organized in collaboration withDisability Tech Denmarkand sponsored bySiteimprove&IAAP Nordic.
I am organizing the event in my role as national expert for Denmark under the European Commission’sAccessibleEUinitiative, which works to promote accessibility across the EU.
The purpose of the day is to explore how AI affects accessibility – both as a technological opportunity and as a challenge – and to share knowledge about how innovation can contribute to more inclusive digital solutions.
