Maigen's Signature Workshop: Why Accessibility Is Essential for Business (and What YOU Can Do About It)!
Join us for an eye-opening evening at Kiln, Portland's premier co-working space, where digital accessibility expert Maigen Thomas will reveal how your business could be unknowingly missing out on 15% of your potential customers. This 90-minute workshop, hosted in Kiln's modern theater room, will transform your understanding of web accessibility while you enjoy complimentary pizza, refreshments and networking opportunities (ID required for wine service). Whether you're a business owner, developer, or designer, you'll leave with actionable strategies to make your digital presence more inclusive—and more profitable.
Spots are limited as the event space has a capacity, so RSVP soon!
Why YOU Should Attend
Entrepreneurs, Business Owners, Executives: You're leaving money on the table. Accessibility barriers on your website or in your SaaS product could be preventing people with disabilities from accessing your services or products.
Designers, Marketers: Find out what basic checks you can do to ensure everyone has a good experience finding out about and using your website or product.
Developers, Engineers, QA: With great power comes great responsibility. By default, HTML and CSS are inherently accessible. If we write code that breaks this accessibility, it is our job to fix it.
