Microsoft Ability Summit May 31st

________________________________

Hello Toby,

On May 30th and 31st Microsoft is hosting our eighth annual 'Ability Summit<http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbXNpZD0mYXVpZD0mbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTgwNDExLjg4MjA0MzExJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE4MDQxMS44ODIwNDMxMSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MTEzMTYxJmVtYWlsaWQ9bm5pZ2h0aW5nYWxlQGNvbWNhc3QubmV0JnVzZXJpZD1ubmlnaHRpbmdhbGVAY29tY2FzdC5uZXQmdGFyZ2V0aWQ9JmZsPSZleHRyYT1NdWx0aXZhcmlhdGVJZD0mJiY=&&&101&&&https://news.microsoft.com/features/microsoft-ability-summit-aims-to-bring-next-wave-of-technology-to-empower-people-with-disabilities/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery>' and we'd love for you to attend!

The Ability Summit is a two day event where we bring together anyone interested in accessibility and disability inclusion to learn, network, and simply have fun! May 30th is targeted at internal Microsoft employees. May 31st is open to anyone who is interested in attending and includes a keynote, Product Expo, Job Fair, and Xbox Inclusive Gaming Lab.

Please read on to find out how you can be a part of the event!

May 31: Join us and evangelize the event with your community members!

The second day of the ability summit is open to all and we are incredibly excited to welcome anyone who is interested in learning more about accessibility at Microsoft to join us!  A big focus of this day is our disability inclusion job fair where we will connect job seekers with 15-20 enterprise companies like Starbucks, Alaska Airlines, and more! We need candidates to attend so read on!

  *   The entire event runs from 12:30pm - 4:00pm on May 31 (doors open at 11:30)
  *   The Disability Inclusion job fair is targeted at people with disabilities in the Redmond area for both technical and non-technical roles and across a range of experience levels. The intent is to educate job fair attendees about opportunities at these companies and collect resumes (the intent is not to interview candidates onsite). LinkedIn will also be available to provide help for attendees to optimize LinkedIn profile.
  *   The Product Expo will run in parallel to the job fair and will showcase the latest and greatest in accessibility features across our suite of products and subject matter experts will be on hand to answer questions. If you like tech, this is the place for you!

We really need your help to get the word out!

To help make it easy to invite people to attend, we've created the attached document to share titled, 'Join us for the 2018 Ability Summit'. Please share this document with anyone involved in your disability community who you think would be interested in attending the May 31st Job Fair and Accessibility Product Expo.  They are in turn also welcome to share this out with others they think would be interested in attending.
