ACCESSIBILITY AT DENVER STARTUP WEEK 2022

Denver Startup Week is committed to inclusivity, accessibility and equality at each of our events. In 2019, we have partnered with Spectrum, Polsinelli, AudioFetch, and LinguaBee for their expertise and guidance to serve participants who are hard of hearing, deaf, visually-impaired, blind, and/or mobility-impaired.


Resources for participants who are deaf or hard of hearing:

DSW Partner LinguaBee will be providing American Sign Language interpreters at the Kickoff Keynote and select HQ events.

Once we have a schedule of ASL requests, we will post the sessions with interpreters here for reference.


Resources for participants who are blind:

Denver Startup Week can provide volunteers at select events to help with navigation and written materials for participants who request assistance.


Resources for participants who speak a language other than English:

Denver Startup Week can provide translators at select events to help attendees who do not speak English or for whom English is a second language.


Additional resources for participants requesting accommodation:

Our venues have been instructed to reserve front row seating for participants who request it and asked to pay attention to the accessibility of the venue for people with disabilities.

Presentations will be requested from speakers after the conclusion of Denver Startup Week and will be posted on our website.


We’d like to give a HUGE thanks to our 2022 Accessibility Sponsor for making these accommodations possible, Comcast.


To inquire about assistance, please email us at accessibility@denverstartupweek.org with your proposed schedule and requests.* Please note: September 5 is the deadline to request assistance.


*While Denver Startup Week is committed to providing reasonable accommodation, we rely on our sponsors and in-kind partners to fulfill requests for services. Therefore, we may not have the capacity to honor every individual request.
