  • Cognitive Disability Profile – assists with reading and focusing
  • ADHD Friendly Profile – more focus and fewer distractions
  • Blind Users (Screen-reader) – use the website with your screen-reader

Closed Captions 

The Global Summit Event Platform includes free unlimited access to closed captions and translations in over 30 languages, only for our plenary panel sessions and workshops.

To access closed captions on the desktop version of the platform, join the live stream, then click the ‘CC’ icon below the lower right corner of the live stream and select a language from the drop-down. Captions then appear below the live stream.

For poster presentations, closed captions in your language will be available by clicking on the presenter’s YouTube or Vimeo video, not through the platform.
