As an event organizer, our goal is to always ensure that regardless of abilities, anyone can access our events. Closed captioning is certainly an important feature, especially for a livestreamed event. We thought we did everything right here and contracted with a firm to provide closed captioning for all 160 sessions at the event. However, we found out with less than 24 hours to go, that the service we contracted with is not going to be ready for the conference. This is certainly a learning experience for us and one we're already ensuring this does not happen again.

Current historic events require that we are mindful of the times and purposeful in our role. So many are in pain at the hands of injustrice. Therefore, we’ve decided to move the VOICE Global conference to Wednesday, June 17th. Tuesday, June 9th is the private funeral for George Floyd and we are going to take that day to remember George. We are also going to remember the thousands of innocent individuals before him. Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, Eric Garner and so many more needless victims.
