This month’s Coffee Connection is slightly different—we’re combining Networking and Education! Like in previous months, you’ll have time to engage in good old-fashioned networking, building valuable connections over coffee. But for the last 45 minutes, we’re introducing an educational session on an innovative AI tool designed to help websites stay compliant and accessible. In today’s digital world, web accessibility isn’t just a best practice—it’s essential for ensuring inclusivity and legal compliance. Many businesses unknowingly exclude potential customers due to inaccessible websites, and with regulations evolving, staying ahead is more important than ever. AI has the power to transform how we approach accessibility, making it easier and more efficient to identify and fix compliance issues in real-time. Neglecting accessibility not only alienates potential users but also limits the full potential of AI-driven solutions. In an increasingly digital world, making AI accessible is not just a moral imperative, but a smart business strategy that enhances brand reputation and long-term success.
Join us to discover how this cutting-edge technology can help your business create a more inclusive online experience while mitigating risk. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to network, learn, and embrace the power of AI!
Coffee Connections is not just a cup of coffee; it's an opportunity to meet other business professionals and community leaders, build new partnerships, make new friends, and exchange ideas in a comfortable and intimate environment. Each month, we rotate the location so you can visit different businesses! No agenda - Come for the coffee - stay for the connections.
This month’s event is sponsored by: Prolific Digital.
Meet Altly
Prolific Digital will be introducing Altly, an AI-powered solution designed to eliminate accessibility barriers for images online. With 1.3 billion people worldwide experiencing significant disabilities, yet only 3% of websites meeting accessibility standards, the need for a scalable, automated solution has never been greater. Altly aims to push forward on web accessibility issues. The platform helps to simplify and automate the alt-text creation process without sacrificing quality, ensuring that businesses and creative teams can efficiently produce accurate, contextual image descriptions while maintaining compliance with ADA and WCAG accessibility standards for their websites.
Join us on Apr 24th to learn more about Altly and how AI can help alleviate web accessibility issues.
