5 Bold Predictions About Disability that Will Define 2026

Join this free online webinar exploring how AI, accessibility, inclusive design, neuro-accessibility, smart city ecosystems, and assistive technology are shaping the future of work and society.

About the Event

As a partner, CCRW is pleased to share this upcoming webinar from Food Processing Skills Canada .

This session explores five transformative predictions for 2026 and examines how AI, accessibility, and inclusive design are reshaping technology, business, and society. Attendees will gain insight into emerging trends such as agentic AI, smart city ecosystems, neuro-accessibility, and the growing assistive technology market.

A bonus topic will also look at brain health and vitality as an increasingly important global conversation.

Accessibility is increasingly becoming both a social priority and a competitive business advantage.

What You’ll Learn

  • How the shift from assistive AI to agentic AI is changing expectations for accessible technology.
  • Why inclusive design is becoming essential not only for accessibility, but also for visibility, reach, and business success.
  • How smart city ecosystems could transform mobility and accessibility through connected infrastructure.
  • What the neuro-accessibility revolution means for workplaces and support for neurodivergent talent.
  • Why the rapidly growing assistive technology market is becoming increasingly relevant for broader populations.
  • How brain health is emerging as a key topic in global economic and workforce conversations.

Who May Be Interested

This webinar may be of interest to employers, HR professionals, accessibility leaders, disability inclusion advocates, workforce development professionals, and anyone interested in the future of accessible and inclusive workplaces.
