InnovateABLE Pitchfest Returns for Its 7th Year in Honor of ADA35

June 6, 2025 by lkarl

A Bonus Event for Registered TravelAbility Summit Attendees – July 25, 2025 (Virtual)

In recognition of the 35th anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the 7th Annual InnovateABLE Pitchfest will take place virtually via Zoom on Friday, July 25, 2025, at 10:00 AM PDT. This bonus event is available to registered attendees of the upcoming TravelAbility Summit.

The InnovateABLE Pitchfest highlights cutting-edge advancements in accessible technology, products, and amenities designed for the tourism and hospitality industry. Participating companies are focused on practical innovations that can be implemented through destination marketing organizations (DMOs) and introduced to hotels, attractions, museums, and other key industry stakeholders.

Each company will present a 3-minute video pitch, followed by a 7-minute Q&A with a panel of judges comprised of investors, travel professionals, and accessibility leaders. The fast-paced format is designed to spark collaboration, inspire adoption, and bring visibility to scalable solutions that promote inclusion across the travel experience.

The winners of the Pitchfest will be invited to present their innovations in person at the TravelAbility Summit, taking place October 13–15, 2025, in Sunriver, Oregon. The summit serves as a national gathering of travel professionals, accessibility advocates, and industry innovators committed to advancing accessible tourism.

Attendance at the Pitchfest is included with TravelAbility Summit registration. Learn more and register for the TravelAbility Summit today!
