Chicago Abilities Expo Schaumburg

The Chicago Abilities Expo in Schaumburg is a unique trade fair that has aimed to enrich and facilitate the lives of people with disabilities since its inception. The name "Abilities" stands for the skills and opportunities that are intended to be offered to these individuals. It is organized by Abilities Expo, Inc. and takes place annually in June. The Abilities Expo Chicago is held at the Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center, an impressive venue with over 13,000 square meters of exhibition space.

This is located in the city of Schaumburg, about 27 miles from downtown Chicago, and thanks to its proximity to Chicago O'Hare International Airport, it enjoys a central location. The journey to the Convention Center is well signposted and thus easy to reach. The main themes of the fair include the presentation of new technologies, products, and services aimed at improving the lives of people with disabilities and their families. This offering is complemented by information events and workshops on topics such as dance, adaptive sports, and animal therapy. Exhibitors at this fair include manufacturers of rehabilitation and assistance technologies, providers of health services, and organizations that specialize in advising and supporting people with disabilities. The visitors are primarily people with disabilities, their families and caregivers, seniors, and professionals from the health sector. The Abilities Expo shows how the integration and support of people with disabilities can be improved. It is part of a series of trade fairs that take place every year in different cities across the United States.

The Chicago Abilities Expo will take place on 3 days from Friday, 21. June to Sunday, 23. June 2024 in Schaumburg.
