The annual Accessibility Festival Week combines experiential learning, cross-departmental collaboration, and strategic planning to address accessibility gaps in product development, retail experiences, and workplace culture. By organizing visits to inclusive retail spaces like Samsung KX and Google’s Accessibility Discovery Center, the company facilitates knowledge-sharing about best practices while encouraging employees to view accessibility through both professional and personal lenses. The symposium’s emphasis on interdepartmental dialogue — particularly between UX strategists, marketers, and R&D teams — reflects an understanding that meaningful accessibility integration requires breaking down silos within large organizations.
