Canada’s first innovation hub dedicated to accessibility startups and technologies is launching its flagship location today in Toronto today. With the support of HP Inc., the Access to Success (ATS) Innovation Hub will bring together entrepreneurs, corporations, international networks and government agencies to accelerate connection and unlock new pathways for capital, procurement and technology adoption.
Located on Toronto’s waterfront at 130 Queens Quay East, the ATS Innovation Hub offers a shared environment that fosters the exchange of ideas, partnerships and problem solving. The hub unites innovators developing solutions across disability sectors including mobility, sensory, cognitive, neurodiversity, and mental health; and thematic areas such as the Future of Work, Active Mobility, Aging in Place and more. With the backing of HP, participants have access to integrated workstations equipped with laptops, monitors, docking stations, printers, and essential workplace technology. This robust infrastructure helps reduce technology access barriers and enables users to focus on building and scaling impactful accessibility solutions.
The hub will not only drive innovation but also support policy dialogue, promote accessibility technologies, build capital partnerships, and strengthen procurement pathways to speed up market entry in Canada and internationally. It shows how public-private collaborations can boost inclusive innovation and deliver expandable benefits for people with disabilities.
Representing the first major initiative in an expanded partnership with HP, this launch supports HP’s global mission to accelerate the Future of Work for 150 million people by 2030. The effort began in 2024, when Access to Success was selected for the HP’s Accelerator. Following the success of that program, Access to Success and HP established a long-term strategic partnership focused on expanding accessibility training, advancing inclusive technology standards, and equipping people with disabilities with the skills needed to thrive in the Future of Work.
