Innovation Martlesham, in association with IP Network, would like to invite you to another Breakfast Networking Event
With Guest Speakers:
Nigel Lewis, CEO, AbilityNet & Chair, One Voice for Accessible ICT ‘Grow your employee talent pool and client base - How can accessible technology help your business.' AbilityNet work with many digital leaders & national and international organisations. They are able to enhance the ICT experience for disabled members of the team by finding ICT solutions in the workplace, at home and in education. If you are not accessible as a business you are missing out on a range of talent that will help you grow your business and a large number of clients who won’t buy your products and services. So come and hear why and what accessible ICT can do for your business; for your current staff; in attracting new talent; and how it will allow you to expand your sales opportunities. Employers are legally responsible for ensuring their employees are adequately equipped to do their job, which includes making 'reasonable adjustments' to their workstation. There are many benefits: Improved efficiency, increased staff loyalty and retention - saving recruitment costs, improved recruitment processes, compliance with the law (Equality Act 2010) and lower risk of litigation. Nigel will provide an overview of what is accessibility, what it means, why it’s important for users/clients and how it can benefit organisations to deliver accessible and inclusive systems, services and content And Adam Oliver, Head of Inclusion and Age & Disability Research Programmes, BT ‘BT’s approach to Inclusion’ Adam will present some of BT’s work on inclusion and provide a brief overview of ‘One Voice’ – an initiative BT is passionate about that makes us think about the way we communicate messages to our customers and one another. PLACES ARE LIMITED AND ATTENDANCE IS BY REGISTRATION ONLY. Please register by contacting nicky.daniels@innovationmartlesham.com and await confirmation that you have been successful.
