95% of today’s websites are NOT accessible. What are the implications for website owners?
- LITIGATION RISK: The number of lawsuits is rising, especially in NY and CA. The average cost is $35K. And small businesses are NOT exempt.
- MARKET OPPORTUNITY: 10% of website users have a disability. That’s an opportunity to increase your website traffic instantly.
- BRAND LOYALTY & REPUTATION: People with disabilities can become customers. And everyone else will be impressed. Corporations focus on ESG and DEI, and accessibility and compliance are important factors.
- IT’S THE LAW!

About Lunch & Learn
Building on the virtual community that has formed as a result of the past couple of years, we are pleased to present our new Lunch & Learn program. Our Lunch & Learns provides a monthly opportunity to learn about various topics presented by Subject Matter Experts (SME) from the nglccNY and network with members that are both in the NYC area and beyond.
Each virtual Lunch & Learn includes a 30-45 minute presentation of a topic from a SME, and will also allow time for networking during a breakout session.
To learn more about the Lunch and Learns, have questions or want to submit an idea of a future Lunch & Learn, please email info@nglccny.org.
