Did you know that while around 5% of the world population has disabling hearing loss, 80% of the people who use captions don’t have a hearing impairment, and 85% of videos on Facebook are watched with sound off? Accessibility is all around us and already part of our daily lives, whether in the form of permanent, temporary, or situational exclusions.
Join us at the Toronto Microsoft Office on Tuesday October 25th to learn more about what accessibility is, the cost of not engaging in this human imperative from the ground up, and resources for your organization to improve accessibility considerations for people of all abilities - now.
In this event, we will discuss ways to increase your business profit margin up to 30%; learn how accessibility increases developer productivity while reducing "accessibility debt", and how to reduce the cost of non-compliance up to 3x, noting certain legislations such as the Accessible Canada Act coming into force. We want to: set everyone up for success, empower inclusive practices, and get you to win more customers with features that feel more inclusive and personalized. The opportunity is endless when there is focus on making applications and business processes accessible.
