SUMMARY:Integrating Digital Accessibility into Your DEI Strategy
DESCRIPTION:When accessibility isn’t part of your diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) strategy\, barriers are created\, which can make it difficult for an individual with a disability to engage or interact with your business as intended.

By improving your user experience\, all users benefit. \nJoin Daryn Harpaz\, CEO\, and Juliette Alexandria\, Senior Accessibility Analyst\, of Zenyth Group to learn how to seamlessly integrate digital accessibility into your DEI strategy.
