Conference feedback

Good morning,
Many thanks for the opportunity to stay in touch with the developments in the translation field, while I only had the opportunity to follow just a presentation by Mrs. Braeuer on 30th Sept. I am glad to have had a look at the current trends, thanks very much!

Today's event was highly beneficial and helpful.


Thanks for organizing this event again. I always enjoy it. This year I couldn't participate much because my Internet connection is pitiful but I plan to check the videos on demand as soon as I am able.

Happy International Translation Day!

Amazing sessions from free tools to mistakes to avoid to managing client expectations (to name a few). Great added value and by far the best way to celebrate Translator's Day. Many thanks!
