We love coming together with so many incredible, purpose-driven organizations. Hosting these expos collaboratively on a single day creates a unique opportunity to unite our communities, making it easier for busy organizations to participate & reach even more people. It also ensures community members have better access to connect and explore everything this triple-expo has to offer!

Discover the latest innovations in adaptive technologies, assistive, accessible products, and supportive lifestyle & homes. Listen to interactive workshops and presentations – and share your experiences with others. Check out new adaptive and inclusive sports – and try one out!

Whether you’re looking for resources, design inspiration, or simply want to connect with others in your community, the collaborative Adaptive Living Expo, Inclusive & Para Sports Expo & Access Expo is not to be missed!

Ottawa Inclusive and Para Sports Expo

Over the past three years, OIPSE has been a true collaboration between our health care, education and sport community. Hundreds of athletes, caregivers, coaches and community members with disabilities filled the gymnasiums at Carleton University. Attendees participated in sports demonstrations, sports exhibits and met fellow coaches to learn about inclusive and adapted sport programming and so much more.

Adaptive Living Expo

BuildAble Design + Renovations’ accessibility team brought the inaugural and triumphant Adaptive Living Expo to life in 2024. From newborns to centenarians, they hosted nearly 1000 guests of all abilities. In addition to the first Chronic & Iconic Makers’ Market supporting disabled & chronically ill artists; both exhibitors & attendees only requested that the 2025 expo be even bigger. We listened.


Access Expo

Spinal Cord Injury Ontario (SCIO) offers services designed to empower individuals with spinal cord injuries and mobility disabilities. SCIO Access Expos showcase adaptive equipment, products and services that enable people with disabilities to accomplish both everyday tasks and extraordinary feats
