Middle East and Africa Accessibility Testing Market Growth Factors

Increasing Reliance on Mobile and Web Applications

Around 1 billion people, or 20% of the population, are expected to have some disability, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Mobile applications and gadgets have become essential for day-to-day tasks thanks to the advancement of technology. They make it possible to do things like place food orders and play both online and offline games from virtually anywhere. Accessibility is essential for enabling people with impairments to use technology, and it may be aided by specialized tools like online accessibility evaluation tools or WCAG 2.0 audits.

Market Restraint

Lack of Adaptability and Failure to Meet Regulatory Standards

In a recent survey, the World Health Organization (WHO) found that 42% of the countries it surveyed lacked specific strategies for rehabilitation. Additionally, the survey revealed that only 50% of the laws governing rehabilitating individuals with impairments were implemented. In addition, forty percent of the countries surveyed had no rehabilitation initiatives. Despite having clearly defined rehabilitation laws and policies, several countries have found it difficult to put these laws and policies into practice and provide high-quality rehabilitation services.

Market Opportunity

The Power of Ai and Automation Tools in Accessibility Testing

In the contemporary digital world, accessibility has become quite important. The market for accessibility testing services is predicted to benefit from the development of AI-powered solutions and automation.
