We are delighted to announce that Q-Leap will be taking part in the Innovation Cluban event organized by the Chambre des Métiersin collaboration with theEnterprise Europe Network and Luxinnovation. This event will take place on October 22, 2024 at the Chambre des Métiers, and will highlight a key topic: the practical implementation of the recently passed law on accessibility of products and services.
A crucial legislative context
The law on accessibility of products and services, enacted on March 8, 2023, will come into force on June 28, 2025. This legislation aims to ensure that digital products and services are accessible to all, including people with disabilities. However, many companies, particularly SMEs, find it difficult to understand these accessibility criteria and to evaluate their sites and applications independently.
Event objective
This interactive conference aims to demystify the digital accessibility evaluation process. Our expert Julien Desmulier from the Q-Leap team, and Christian Jolas, Agile Partner, will share practical tools and methods that companies can use to carry out a first partial accessibility evaluation of their web and mobile applications.
