The inclusion imperative.
Many organisations are waking up to the fact that embracing accessibility leads to multiple benefits – improving customer experience, strengthening brand presence, and reducing legal risks.
And with digital experiences now central to how companies interact with their customers, and with almost 1 in 5 people in Australia estimated to have a disability, accessibility has become a central requirement for every digital touchpoint.
