Join us for a presentation and discussion with Susanna Laurin, Managing Director of the Funka Foundation. We'll cover the most common questions around digital accessibility and the upcoming European Accessibility Act (EAA).
With 10 months to go before the EAA takes effect, this webinar aims to answer your higher-level legal questions while diving into tactical ways for tech teams to start working on digital accessibility immediately. All you need to do is sign up.
The Funka Foundation uses research to empower and enhance the independence of people with disabilities in every aspect of society. Their objective is to act as a knowledge centre on accessibility, user involvement, and inclusion, serving all sectors and stakeholders.
Their focus is accessibility in the digital environment and communication, but they also have expertise in universal design and accessibility in sectors such as education, employment, transport or built environment.
The Funka Foundation works to achieve its objectives through user-driven initiatives, scientific research, innovation, strategic studies, and standardisation.
Accessibility is a must, and there isn't much time left if you haven't started working on it yet. If your digital products do not meet legal accessibility requirements, they could be shut down in the worst-case scenario. Alternatively, your company could be fined thousands of euros. In any case, you risk losing more than 30% of potential customers.
Accessibility is no longer just an ethical issue for digital products; it is also a business and growth decision. Moreover, it is a legal responsibility.
Be prepared for 2025 when the European Accessibility Act comes into full effect.
Join our expert panel from tretton37 as we dive into digital accessibility and prepare for what must be done during the fall. This informative session will feature insights and practical advice from Samuel Bergstrom (Design Lead), Max Almqvist (Product Manager), and Teodor Jonsson (Frontend Developer).
Together, they will share their expertise on how to ensure your digital products and services will deliver exceptional user experiences for everyone. Well, in time before June 2025.
Date: 26th of June between 12.00- 13.00 PM
