HubSpot’s annual marketing conference gathered 11,000 business leaders and industry influencers worldwide for collaborative learning and networking. ICS was dedicated to delivering a seamless and inclusive experience for all attendees, ensuring accessibility on all stages, ad
hoc sessions, and at the registration desk.
While the lighting was ideal for the onsite experience, the live stream displayed slightly darker visuals. Swiftly recognizing the discrepancy, our onsite coordinator promptly adjusted the lighting to ensure optimal visibility and quality for the audience.
Shelby and the Inclusive Team were fantastic partners on a recent event we produced in Boston. Professional, responsive, and competitively priced. We received great feedback from our clients and guests on the experience working with the interpreters.
Thank you!
