With the EAA becoming law in 11 months, statistics like this one aren’t a wake-up call, they’re a fire alarm: “94% of European websites are inaccessible to people with disabilities.” That 94% number comes from the Digital Trust Index (https://lnkd.in/e6g2x_Qg), which recently used Deque’s axe-core to evaluate the accessibility of over 260,000 websites across 18 European countries. Their findings make clear that organizations selling products or services within or into the EU need to start working on compliance now. Fortunately, not only is Deque the world’s leader for digital accessibility testing, we’re also the ideal partner for any business focusing on EAA compliance. Deque experts recently hosted an interactive webinar titled “Countdown to enforcement 2025: Navigating the European Accessibility Act,” (https://lnkd.in/ggzwP2cj) and they answered many of the top questions in this blog post: European Accessibility Act (EAA): Top 20 Key Questions Answered (https://lnkd.in/g5pkzaMF). With less than a year until EAA takes effect, we know your business can’t afford to be a part of that 94%. Get a free consultation with a Deque strategic consultant today, and let’s build your EAA compliance blueprint!
