Whatever you do (as a company or organization), please donāt fall victim to the performative a11yship of #GAAD:

Using GAAD for marketing is, IMO, shitty. Itās the crap overlay companies pull to signal they arenāt shitty. Donāt be shitty on GAAD.
I donāt know which companies need to hear this, but itās ok, you donāt have to hold a #GAAD event.
Maybe just share all the others or recommend one to check out. Let your employees attend one.
We donāt need dozens of competing events.
If you donāt have one on the calendar already, itās too late anyway.
