For twenty years, the Global Autism Project has been working with educators, leaders, and visionaries who are working toward one, shared vision: Create an accepting, inclusive world with the Autistic community. Global Summit was created to provide a platform for cross-cultural collaboration between service providers working around the world, and center Autistic voices and experiences in the growth and development of businesses working to serve the population! From responsive approaches to education to innovative entrepreneurship – from marketing strategies to leadership coaching, Global Summit is for leaders working with the Autistic community anywhere in the world!
