Joint commitment to inclusion: patronage by Lord Mayor Josef and visit by Mayor Eskandari-Grünberg at SightCity 2024

Patronage and visit by the mayor

SightCity 2024 is under the special patronage of Lord Mayor Josef, who is thus reaffirming his commitment to people with visual impairments and to inclusion in society. In this context, the Mayor of Frankfurt, Ms. Eskandari-Grünberg, will also visit and honour the world’s largest trade fair for visual aids. The support from the city leadership of Frankfurt am Main is an important sign of recognition and promotion of the concerns of people with visual impairments.

In addition to attending the opening ceremony, Mayor Eskandari-Grünberg’s visit will also include a tour of the exhibition stands, during which she will find out about the innovative products and services in person and hold discussions with experts and those affected. This event is not only a tribute to the exhibitors and organizers, but also emphasizes the importance of the topic for the urban community and the promotion of intensive dialogue among all participants.

Relevance of patronage and visit for SightCity 2024

SightCity 2024, the leading platform for visual aids and technologies, offers a varied and extensive program ranging from technical innovations to discussion forums. With the patronage of Lord Mayor Josef and the visit of Mayoress Eskandari-Grünberg, the events will gain additional relevance and be made accessible to a broad public. The trade fair acts as a pioneering event for networking and further development in the field of visual impairments and attracts experts, manufacturers and those affected in equal measure.

The presence of the head of the city and his deputy emphasizes the commitment of the city of Frankfurt to bring the discourse on inclusion and the improvement of everyday life for people with visual impairments and blindness to the fore. SightCity 2024 therefore not only stands for technical progress, but also represents an increasingly inclusive society and thus participation.
