As event materials explain, “automation and Artificial Intelligence is changing the way we build personas and personalization. Transforming or creating your accessibility strategy to offer new methods of digital experience opens an unprecedented opportunity. How is your audience who has an accessibility preference currently experiencing your website, app or other digital media content? Accessibility is more than compliance, it’s about creating powerful experiences that drive engagement. AI and Automation will change how personalization reaches the Accessibility space. Are we ready?”
Topics of discussion will include building and scaling an effective accessibility strategy; leveraging existing domain expertise around automation, AI, and personalization for accessibility; strategy shifts to include accessibility; and the risks and rewards of technology disruptions emerging.
