[technology taskforce] Accessible Conference Tools

[Glenn McKnight]

Let'sGoEXPO has a very unique history. Built their system to assist the low
vision and blindness industry by making information about products and
services available to individuals who may never be able to attend a
tradeshow or conference.
Basically their goal was to "bring the event to the individual, instead of
the individual to the event." Our initial testing was extremely successful,
and we began our path of developing a suite of online products that are
accessible to both attendees (front end) as well as organizers (back-end
management) of online events.y research on conference tools  adapted to the
needs of the disabled discovered
