We invite language service companies and all businesses interested in localization to our online localization conference on April 23. We will take a look at the challenges the COVID-19 outbreak is bringing both inside and outside the language industry. We will also discuss how to grow your translation business and prepare your organization for the future.
The conference will last 12 consecutive hours, giving you the chance to join
from any part of the world. Just because we’re staying at home doesn’t mean
we can’t be connected!
Attendance of the conference is free, just register and keep an eye on the updates!
