Join this free breakfast networking event and learn how to enhance accessibility to boost your business. 

You’ll hear practical advice and tips to create a better experience for customers and employees while improving the diversity, inclusion and profitability of your business.

There’s growing evidence that good access is good for business. Research from Monash University shows that for every dollar businesses spend on better access, there is a $13 return on investment.

With more than 5 million (1 in 5) Australians living with disability, businesses that make it easier to buy products and services by improving access, inclusion and diversity have been found to have twice as much selling power.

Becoming more accessible and inclusive doesn’t have to be hard. There are simple steps you can take to improve your customer service, physical environment and communication to be more welcoming of people with disability. Attend this event to learn more.
