Countdown to the Neurotech Frontiers Summit: Empowering Neurodiverse Innovation
In just four days, the Neurotech Frontiers Summit, presented by the Frist Center for Autism and Innovation at Vanderbilt University, will make its way to Nashville from October 10th to October 20th.
This year’s theme, “Shaping the future of Assistive and Inclusive Technology,” brings together researchers, entrepreneurs, and neurodivergent leaders shaping inclusivity and creating innovation in the field of AI & machine learning, software platforms, assistive devices, and robotics.
The Summit celebrates breakthroughs and showcases advances across fields that empower individuals with autism, ADHD, learning differences, and other forms of neurodiversity. Attendees aren’t just researchers, entrepreneurs, and learners. There will be a wide range of individuals from the community, including companies developing neuroinclusive solutions, educators and therapists integrating technology into their respective settings, policymakers seeking to shape accessibility and inclusion, and even investors seeking opportunities in neurodiversity-focused spaces.
A few highlights include the Pitch Competition, presented by Janus Innovation Hub x Multiple, where attendees can share bold ideas on stage.
