Description

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) is the most important and comprehensive global policy in the history of digital accessibility.

With the EAA’s June 2025 deadline rapidly approaching, companies are in a mission-critical period. To meet the deadline in time, accessibility efforts must be underway now.

Join leaders from the European Commission and European Disability Forum as they provide user, policy, and business perspectives on the EAA. Their discussion will cover the evolution of disability rights in Europe and how that led to the new directive. They’ll also explain the EAA in detail, clarify what organizations need to know to get compliant and outline strategic first steps.

Discover how the EAA will shape the global accessibility landscape and how your organization can achieve EAA compliance in this actionable and future-focused session.
