It was a very good experience attending two days conference for translators. Thank you very much.


I wasn't able to see all the conferences I wanted due to the different time zones but I enjoyed the few I attended! Thank you!


I really like the event. We had the opportunity to learn some tips about how to develop our career and also ask and discuss about lots of different subjects.
A good mix that help us have a wide idea about the market and how to face it.

Thanks to all the participants!
